Abstract
Classic catheter angiography is compared with 3D gadolinium MR angiography for evaluation of the vascular anatomy of the celiac trunk, liver supplying arteries, and the portal venous system. Based on 10 patients, this study shows the value of this new non-invasive method of angiography for the diagnosis of visceral vascular anatomy. For this diagnosis MR angiography is expected to replace conventional angiography in the near future.
