Abstract

There are many different imaging features of cirrhosis, some of which are less commonly recognized. It is important that the radiologist is familiar with these features as cirrhosis can be first discovered on imaging performed for other indications, thus alerting the clinician for the need to screen for complications of cirrhosis and referral for potential treatment. This article reviews the various imaging findings of cirrhosis seen on cross-sectional imaging of the abdomen and pelvis.
