A member asked:
Can you please tell me where the subcapsular location (abdomen/pervic) is? noted on a ct scan
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Most of the solid: organs of the abdomen, like the liver and spleen, are surrounded by a membranous "capsule". So if something is described as sub capsular, it is located beneath the capsule, i.e. between the capsule and the organ surface. In your question you do not specify which capsule is being referred to.
