CT Findings of Normal and Abnormal Appendices. The goal of CT interpretation is to identify the appendix and to characterize it as normal or abnormal. This can be surprisingly difficult in a minority of cases, even with optimized technique.he appendix, which contains gas, is seen (A) abutting the medial edge of the right hepatic lobe in one patient (arrow), and (B) anterior to the liver in another patient (arrow). When determining if appendicitis is present, all of the CT findings should be integrated in making this determination.
