Abstract:

Approaches to the diagnosis of ectopic solid organs in the abdominopelvic cavity include Accessory liver lobe, Accessory spleens (ectopic splenic tissue), Wandering spleen, Ectopic pancreatic tissue, Ectopic kidney (Pancake kidney), Cryptorchidism (undescended testis, ectopic testis), Ectopic endometriosis. The application of diagnostic imaging techniques, of which magnetic resonance imaging is the most important, includes a clinical case study and reports. Ectopic organs and tumors are easy to confuse. This is a concern, as well as practical challenges encountered and solutions adopted in the fields of Image Analysis.
