  • Title: [Diagnosis of a colonic lipoma with computer tomography].
    Author: Karnel F, Pichler W.
    Journal: Rontgenblatter; 1985 Jul; 38(7):231-2. PubMed ID: 4035267.
    Abstract:
    This report describes the case history of a woman with a large submucosal tumor in the ascending colon detected by barium enema radiography. Computed tomography (CT) identified the tumor as a submucosal lipoma characterised by its homogeneous fat-equivalent density with a CT number of -95 HU. This case proves that CT can be a definite diagnostic modality for differentiation between gastrointestinal lipomas and other solid or cystic tumors.
