CT

Contrast-enhanced CT images of the abdomen and pelvis will be obtained during the portal venous phase using a 256-channel CT system (Philips Healthcare, Cleveland, OH). The target median dose-length product (DLP) is 130 mGy·cm, which corresponded to an effective dose of 2 mSv with a conversion factor of 0.015 mSv·mGy-1·cm-1. The radiation output was automatically adjusted according to the individual patient's body size.
