  • Title: CT characterization of multivesicular hydatid cysts.
    Author: Kalovidouris A, Pissiotis C, Pontifex G, Gouliamos A, Pentea S, Papavassiliou C.
    Journal: J Comput Assist Tomogr; 1986; 10(3):428-31. PubMed ID: 3700744.
    Abstract:
    One hundred seventy-eight abdominal multivesicular hydatid cysts were classified into three types (A, B, C) based on CT densities and morphology of cysts. The CT density of viable daughter cysts was always appreciably lower than those of mother hydatid cysts. This density differential between mother and daughter hydatid cyst fluid is a useful diagnostic sign.
