The subtle morphologic structures of the normal and the cirrhotic liver preparations visualized by the use of computer tomography have been presented; moreover, the decreasing radiation has been evaluated in the consecutive layers of the organ. The material comprised 10 preparations of the normal liver and 15 preparations of the liver with histopathologic diagnosis of micronodular cirrhosis. The subtle morphologic structures corresponding to final vascular branches, liver plates and regeneration nodules has been visualized which up to now has been known only from pathomorphologic images. In the liver preparations have been detected the higher value of the radiation decrease equal to 12 +/- 5 Hounsfield units.
