Abstract

We describe a technique for computed tomographic (CT) fluoroscopy-guided celiac artery or superior mesenteric artery (SMA) catheterization for use with CT hepatic arteriography or CT arterial portography, respectively. Patients underwent conventional hepatic angiography to define the anatomy and to place a catheter within the celiac artery or the SMA. Subsequently, the catheter was repositioned in the target vessels under CT fluoroscopy. Our success rate was 94%.
