The clinical manifestation of an acute abdomen involves a broad differential diagnosis, ranging from benign and self-limiting conditions to serious diseases that can put the patient’s life at risk. Clinical evaluation is paramount, with careful history investigation and physical examination, but sometimes it is necessary to complement it with imaging tests for the correct management of the patient. However, it is important to remember that an emergency procedure should never be delayed while waiting for the results of complementary exams. The choice of imaging modality to be used is based on clinical presentation, physical examination, and diagnostic suspicions. It is also important to decide with the radiologist the best technique to be used.

摘要

The clinical manifestation of an acute abdomen involves a broad differential diagnosis, ranging from benign and self-limiting conditions to serious diseases that can put the patient’s life at risk. Clinical evaluation is paramount, with careful history investigation and physical examination, but sometimes it is necessary to complement it with imaging tests for the correct management of the patient. However, it is important to remember that an emergency procedure should never be delayed while waiting for the results of complementary exams. The choice of imaging modality to be used is based on clinical presentation, physical examination, and diagnostic suspicions. It is also important to decide with the radiologist the best technique to be used.
