Journal of Gastroenterology and Hepatology, 09/10/09
Choi D et al. – Experienced readers have a better ability to detect esophageal varices on liver MDCT, but had no higher performance to evaluate high–risk esophageal varices. As the accuracy of detecting high–risk esophageal varices with clinical relevance on liver MDCT is excellent, even by endoscopists, the evaluation of esophageal varices from a recent liver MDCT may be useful to avoid the use of low–yield endoscopy.
