Angiography of the celiac artery using caudal or cephalic beam angulation.
Celiac arteriography in the frontal projection with the tube angled 50 degrees toward the feet demonstrated an aneurysm which arose from the celiac artery and did not involve the splenic or hepatic artery. Angling the tube toward the feet (or toward the head is the celiac artery ascends) is recommended for evaluation of the celiac, proximal splenic, and hepatic arteries.
