Employment of computer-aided tomography and ultrasonic scanning in 74 patients with liver abscesses helped rapidly detect the condition and identify its type. The sensitivity of ultrasonic scanning in the diagnosis of liver abscesses has made up 90.77 percent, specificity 86.44 percent, in computer-aided tomography these values have been the same and made up 97.96 percent. Closed transcutaneous interventions monitored by computer-aided tomography and ultrasonic scanning in these patients helped reduce the number of complications from 48.78 to 27.27 percent, mortality rates from 29.27 to 3.03 percent, hospitalization periods by 13.21 days, i. e. by 20.6 percent, as against the patients treated by traditional surgical methods.
