Intussusception in Adults: The Role of MDCT in the Identification of the Site and Cause of Obstruction

Figure 14

Enterocolonic (ileocaecocolonic) intussusception caused by a polyp. Axial CT images (a, b) demonstrate a soft-tissue density round mass with thin eccentric hypodensity (arrow). Oblique CT reformatting (c, d) clearly shows the enhancement of the lead mass, which facilitates its identification.
