Explain the anatomy and contents of the mesentery Describe ultrasound (USG) and computed tomographic (CT) features of primary and secondary solid mesenteric lesions, mesenteric cystic lesions, secondary mesenteric involvement in inflammatory/ infectious conditions like tuberculosis and inflammatory bowel disease and vascular lesions affecting mesentery. Highlight the importance of cross sectional imaging in diagnosis, detection of complications and management of mesenteric lesions Discuss a stepwise algorithm to approach mesenteric lesions for providing thoughtful differentials
