title: The pancreas.
abstract: A review has been made of the angiographic findings of different benign and malignant pancreatic lesions. The limited need for angiography as a diagnostic procedure is emphasized with guidelines to its indications when such other diagnostic modalities as US and CT are available. The technique, indications and results of pancreatic venography and venous sampling for hormone assay are discussed.
