ABSTRACT
OBJECTIVE@#To determine diagnostic value of liver CT for acute necrotizing pancreatitis.@*METHODS@#A total of 130 patients with the acute necrotizing pancreatitis underwent abdominal helical contrast CT scanning, whose pancreatitis was graded and the live CT values were measured.@*RESULTS@#Altogether 111 patients had decreased liver CT value.Twenty-seven patients with decreased liver CT value were in Grade I, 54 in Grade II, 21 in Grade III, and 9 in Grade IV. There was a negative correlation between CT grades of the liver and CT value of acute necrotizing pancreatitis (r = -0.279, P = 0.008).@*CONCLUSION@#The CT value of liver density has diagnostic value in acute necrotizing pancreatitis.
