What test or scan is best for looking at and seeing a persons liver? Pet? Ct? MRI? X ray?

Thank you

    I'm not for sure but I think it would be CT or MRI, definetly not x-ray.   I hope everything is ok.

    I think a ct is best . I had liver mets that were found by ct, and I am monitored by ct's now. A pet can be helpful if a lesion is found because it can give you an uptake number for that lesion. The higher the number, more likely that it is cancer.
