Abstract

The gold standard for the study of abdominal vessels is conventional digital subtraction angiography (DSA). The development of non-invasive modalities for the visualization of vessels has been one of the challenges of the latest technical developments in vascular imaging. Computed tomography (CT), and magnetic resonance (MR) have been used for the assessment of vascular diseases in the past decade.
