AB The  abdominal  and  pelvic  cavities  include  the  gastrointestinal,  genitourinary,  and  hepatobiliary  systems.  Traditionally  these  cavities  are  divided  into  four  quadrants:  right  upper  quadrant  (RUQ),  left  upper  quadrant  (LUQ),  right  lower  quadrant  (RLQ),  and  left  lower  quadrant  (LLQ).  Diagnostic  imaging  of  these  is  challenging,  related  to  the  highly  consistent  tissue  densities,  which  then  require  contrast  medium  use  to  enable  differentiation/assessment.
