Abdominal sonography should compulsory be used in patients with cystic fibrosis (CF). It is not difficult to detect early morphologic changes at liver, gall-bladder, pancreas, spleen, and vessels by ultrasound. As a non-invasive method sonography is a very useful tool for a comprehensive special care of outpatients with CF.
