Abstract :

Modern Ultrasound devices with high frequency probes and harmonic imaging significantly improve examination of bowel by offering better overall image quality, better visualization of bowel pathology and associated changes in real time.(�live anatomy�). The development of multi-detector CT(MDCT) scanner with rapid acquisition of thin slices and multiplaner reconstruction allows detailed investigation of intestinal loops. IV and oral contrast(negative or positive) are very useful in detection of inflammatory and neoplastic intestinal pathologies as well as in the evaluation of extra-intestinal involvement (mesenteric LNs) and complications. A prospective study of 100 patients was done at B.J, Medical college , Civil hospital. Ahmedabad over the period of 2 years. Our study aims to illustrate the sonographic findings of multiple bowel pathologies-nature, extent and complications ,their differential diagnosis and its correlation with MDCT findings as well as comparison of USG and MDCT findings in diagnosis of different bowel pathology
