CT and MR imaging of the greater omentum : Pictorial essay
Copyright © 2023 Elsevier Inc. All rights reserved..
The greater omentum is a unique anatomical structure that serves a critical function in the containment of inflammatory and infectious processes within the abdominal cavity. It is also a common site of involvement by metastases, as well as the primary location for various pathologic lesions of clinical significance. Its fibroadipose composition, large size, and position in the most anterior aspect of abdomen allow accurate visualization of the greater omentum on CT and MR images. Careful evaluation of the greater omentum can provide important clues to the diagnosis of the underlying abdominal disorder. The aim of this article is to present the normal appearance of the greater omentum, and the wide spectrum of its pathological features as demonstrated on CT and MRI of the abdomen.
