Description
  • Radiopaedia case ID: 55988
  • Image ID: 33144490
  • Image stack position: 47/94
  • Plane projection: Axial
  • Aux modality: C+ portal venous phase
  • Modality: CT
  • System: Cardiac
  • Findings: The IVC is enlarged with a significant contrast reflux. There is ascites throughout the abdomen and pelvis. There is engorgement of the SMV. Bilateral pleural effusions noted. The CTPA was normal. There is subtle hyper-enhancement of the wall of the left ventricle, with the Hounsfield units measuring ~98. The phasing of this scan is abnormal, due to the altered cardiac function, however the myocardium is rarely seen to enhance above ~65 units Hounsfield units.
