During experimental utilization on the dog (per os) of several types of materials capable to be modified by the liver after digestive absorption, sugars appeared naturally opaques in the gastric cavity and so they could substitute in C.T. to the habitual materials of contrast, we also notice some belated modifications on intra hepatic density that might be in relation with the metabolism of intra hepatic glucose.
