Liver abscess
- Diagnosis
Your doctor will likely order a combination of tests to diagnose a liver abscess and determine the cause. These may include blood tests (including blood cultures) and imaging tests such as ultrasound scans, CT (computed tomography) scans or MRIs (magnetic resonance imaging).
A followup endoscopic investigation may sometimes be required to look for growths or pathology in the gastrointestinal tract.
