title: [Angiography of the upper abdomen using DSA. An alternative to conventional arteriography?].
abstract: DSA is not suitable for the investigation of hepatic and splanchnic vessels by intravenous or non-selective arterial injections. On the other hand, its use in selective arterial injection offers many advantages compared with conventional arteriography. It can be particularly recommended for routine use in the pre-operative diagnosis of abdominal masses. In some cases additional conventional angiography may also be required and it is therefore desirable to perform both examinations at one unit in order to profit from the advantages of each technique.
