Overview[edit | edit source]

Although CT scans are not routinely used in evaluation and diagnosis of cirrhosis, it may show the presence of lobar atrophic and hypertrophic changes in the liver, ascites and varices. CT scans also visualize the presence of tumors, blocked bile ducts and help evaluate the size of the liver.
