PSEUDOABNORMAL LIVER SCANS SECONDARY TO RESIDUAL BARIUM IN THE BOWEL

E. QUITMAN SEYMOUR M.D.1, S. E. PUCKETTE JR. M.D.1, and JEAN EDWARDS R.T.1

1 From the Department of Radiology, Medical College of South Carolina, Charleston, South Carolina

1. Residual barium in the bowel, when superimposed over the liver, can produce localized areas of decreased uptake on a scan and thereby a false positive finding. This was detected clinically and confirmed by experimental means.

2. A scout roentgenogram of the abdomen is recommended immediately prior to the scanning of abdominal organs.
