Measurement of liver dimensions For Sudanese using computed tomography

Abstract

This descriptive study, conducted in the state of Khartoum in the period from April 2016 till October 2016 Hospital Zitouna International Specialist, by checking researcher random sample of Sudanese patients and of 50 patients aged between 32 and greater than 65-year-old goal of a researcher in this study to measure the dimensions of liver Sudanese taking four dimensions the following the measurement of the human liver, , the anterior posterior dimension of the left hepatic lobe equals 0.54 5.28 ± cm. Transverse dimension of the right lobe equals 0.45 6.72 ± cm left hepatic angle the liver limit equal to 0.86 ± 45.22 ± degree transverse dimension of the caudate lobe equals 0.54 4.44 ± cm while the researcher found that the ratio between the caudate lobe to the right lobe equal to 0.14 ± 0.53. By the end of the study, the researcher suggested that the Sudanese patient is characterized by the dimensions of the liver largest for what is mentiond in the references compared to the dimension of the anterior posterior lobe right, transverse dimension of the lobe Alvela and nook limit left to the liver in addition to the ratio between the lobe Alvela to the right liver lobe, where the accepted universally that the ratio between Alvela to the right prefrontal lobe equal to 0.37 ± 0.16, while he found a researcher mathematically equal to 0.54 ± 0.45 In addition, the researcher found that the anterior lobe of liver dimension rear left equals 0.54 5.28 ± cm while the global dimension of the anterior posterior lobe of liver left equal to 5 cm.
