[A parallel study of CT findings and histopathology of metastatic liver tumors].

The relation between the CT findings and the histopathology of metastatic liver tumors was investigated in nine autopsy cases of liver metastases. In hypervascular and necrotic tumors, large necrotic lesions demonstrated by CT were almost consistent with the pathological findings, but small metastatic nodules were better identified on plain CT than those on contrast-enhanced CT. Postmortem CT examination of the liver obscured metastatic nodules as compared with diagnostic CT. Diffuse liver involvement of lymphoma cannot be identified on CT examination. Plain CT is considered to be useful for screening liver metastases.
