MR imaging: vascular anatomy of the abdomen

ZL Barbaric, GA Wegenius and GM Anderson
Department of Radiology, UCLA School of Medicine 90024-1721.

In support of the thesis that MRI may replace more invasive angiography in some applications, a total of 28 MR sections are presented to illustrate the vascular anatomy of the abdomen in coronal, transverse and sagittal planes. More than 20 vessels are identified ranging in size from the aorta to the left inferior adrenal vein and the spermatic veins. There is no anatomic continuity in sections made in the coronal and transverse planes; sequential sections of a single patient are presented in sagittal and parasagittal planes, however. The polarity of the images is reversed for ease of comparison with angiograms.
