Abstract
The objective of this study was to determine the normal spleen in Sudanese population using computed tomography (CT) scan by measuring the normal spleen, liver and vertebrae CT number as well as to correlate the spleen readings with patients age, gender and race as well as to correlate the spleen readings with liver and vertebrae CT numbers in order to find out the normal standard value as local refrence for Sudanese and to compare the findings with other population and literature. The study was descriptive analytical study conducted during the period extended from March up to November 2019. CT measurements were performed at Albugga hospital for 50 normal Sudanese subjects. The data were collected prospectively by measuring the spleen, liver and lumber vertebrae CT number using CT machine and the data were analyzed using SPSS. The majority of participants were male 34 (68%).
The mean CT number of spleen among the males was found to be 57.24±7.98 HU , and that among females was 56.19±10.77 the mean different was found to be 1.05 which was statically insignificant within p-value of 0.932 .When the patients age was correlated to the CT number of spleen , the relationship was found to be a weak positive relationship with correlation coefficient of r=0.027 , this relationship was found to be statically significant within p-value of 0.932 .
The mean of CT number of normal spleen among Sudanese patients was found to be 56.90±8.87 HU , the CT number of normal spleen is not affected by gender , age affects Spleen CT number with a weak direct relationship
