About this image

Basic screening

Compare with any previous exam.

Example approach:

  • Liver, spleen and adrenals: Scan through the entire volumes and look mainly for focal changes.
  • The thickness of the adrenal glands is normally up to 1.0 cm.[1]

Further information:

Large intestine

Average inner diameters and ranges of different sections of the large intestine.[2]

Small intestine

On CT scans, a small intestinal diameter of over 2.5 cm is considered abnormally dilated.[3][4][5]
