Study of Liver Changes in Diabetic Patients using Computed Tomography

Abstract

Diabetes mellitus [DM] is a clinical syndrome characterized by hyperglycemia due to absolute or relation insulin deficiency or resistance or both This was descriptive study done for 50 adult Sudanese patient at different ages all were affected with diabetic, Had CT examination for abdomen to find out the relation between duration of diabetic and volume of liver for (length, weight, and CT number) in period from May2018 to October 2019 In SENNAR hospital SENNAR State. The main objective of this study is to study of liver changes in diabetic patient using computed tomography The results showed that the density of the liver increases with increase diabetes duration. and average Width and length for RT lobe of liver, the width was increase by (0.02), and The length increased by (1.16) , And average width and length, for LT lobe of liver the average width was decrease by (0.3) The length increased by (0.2) when the diabetes duration increased . The main findings of the study were that' s the relation between the liver measurements (length, width, and density) and diabetic duration . CT has great value in detection changes happened for subjects affected by Diabetes Mellitus.
