Summary

This summary is machine-generated.

Encapsulating peritoneal sclerosis (EPS), a severe complication of peritoneal dialysis (PD), lacks uniform diagnostic imaging. Computed tomography (CT) with contrast enhancement is recommended as the primary imaging choice for suspected EPS.

Area of Science:

Nephrology
Radiology
Gastroenterology

Background:

Encapsulating peritoneal sclerosis (EPS) is a rare, severe complication of long-term peritoneal dialysis (PD).
Diagnostic imaging for EPS has lacked uniformity due to the condition's rarity.
Computed tomography (CT) is currently the most frequently used imaging modality.

Purpose of the Study:

To review all imaging modalities used for diagnosing EPS in PD patients.
To discuss imaging features, advantages, and limitations of each modality for EPS detection.
To recommend the optimal imaging approach for suspected EPS.

Main Methods:

Systematic review of imaging modalities for EPS diagnosis.
Analysis of historical and current imaging techniques.
Evaluation of imaging features characteristic of EPS.

Main Results:

Various imaging techniques have been employed for EPS diagnosis over time.
CT with contrast enhancement demonstrates key imaging features of EPS.
Each modality presents unique advantages and shortcomings for EPS evaluation.

Conclusions:

CT with contrast enhancement is the preferred imaging modality for suspected EPS.
Standardized imaging protocols are needed for accurate EPS diagnosis.
Further research may refine imaging approaches for this rare complication.
