[A case of gastric cancer with trial of x-, y- and z-axes positional reformation in multiphase fusion imaging of three-dimensional perigastric arteriography and venography].
Because multiphase fusion imaging demonstrates three-dimensionally and simultaneously the perigastric arteries and veins, it is particularly useful in the simulation of laparoscopic gastric cancer surgery. We constructed a multiphase fusion image of the perigastric arteries and veins, which were divided by a different degree of respiratory rest. We attempted to reform the positional relationship of the left gastric coronary vein to the splenic arteries along the x-, y-, and z-axes, however, the portal vein ran along the ventral side of the gastroduodenal artery, and the gastroepiploic artery was separate from the gastroepiploic vein, differing from the true anatomical relationship.
