  • Title: Sonographic features of hepatic amebiasis in childhood.
    Author: Hayden CK, Toups M, Swischuk LE, Amparo EG.
    Journal: J Can Assoc Radiol; 1984 Sep; 35(3):279-82. PubMed ID: 6389564.
    Abstract:
    We report the ultrasonographic features of hepatic amebiasis in six children. The spectrum of change ranges from a typical abscess to early "hepatitis." Ultrasonography is the primary imaging modality in patients suspected of having this disease and is excellent in localizing disease. This is important in terms of abscess drainage and in recognizing complications such as diaphragmatic perforation and empyema.
