Angiography in the diagnosis of liver disease.
Although necessity for angiography has been reduced somewhat because of the development of newer imaging modalities, such as ultrasound and CT, celiac or hepatic arteriography, portography, and hepatic venography often prove useful in the diagnosis of liver disease. They can be utilized for therapeutic purposes as well in certain vascular abnormalities.
