Case description

Note the liver metastasis.

CT is an important complimentary imaging technique to
detect scirrhous carcinoma. The sensitivity of detection
depends on the size of the lesion and the quality of the
examination. CT has limitations in staging early lesions but
shows a high sensitivity (89%) in detecting avanced
carcinomas.
