Nevertheless, a definitive diagnosis may be made with conventional radiography in selected cases. The most important finding is the recognition of an appendicolith, which, like the appendiceal lumen, may be located far from its expected position in the right lower quadrant. Air in the appendix is a normal finding, except when the lumen is dilated. Ancillary findings, such as cecal dilatation, are nonspecific. Recognition of appendiceal abscess depends upon demonstration of a mass and/or extraluminal air in the form of large lucencies or small bubbles.
