ROLE OF CT IN EVALUATION OF SUBACUTE INTESTINAL OBSTRUCTION WITH INCONCLUSIVE RADIOGRAPHIC & ULTRASOUND FINDINGS: A PROSPECTIVE STUDY

Journal Title: IJAR-Indian Journal of Applied Research - Year 2018, Vol 8, Issue 4

Abstract

The diagnosis of intestinal obstruction is often immediately evident after thorough clinical examination & plain radiography. But at times it poses a difficulty especially in patients presenting as SAIO with less severe, intermittent features that cause delay in diagnosis. The indications for the use of CT in patients with SAIO have not been fully defined. Accordingly, we did a prospective study to determine the role of CT in the diagnosis of patients with suspected subacute bowel obstruction in whom confident decisions of therapy could not be made on the basis of clinical, plain radiographic & ultrasound findings.
