title: [The current value of angiography within the scope of complex tumor diagnosis].
abstract: The development of noninvasive imaging methods with high diagnostic accuracy in the last decade has led to a new determination of the role of angiographic techniques in oncologic diagnosis. The disadvantages of angiography are discussed and the major indications in tumor diagnosis are delineated: preoperative vascular mapping, vascular involvement of the great vessels, CT and ultrasound equivocal, selective blood sampling and interventional procedures. The increasing importance of interventional radiology in oncology is emphasized.
