Anomalous arterial supply to the gallbladder from the superior mesenteric artery: angiography and computed tomography findings in two cases.

30 Oct 2008 The arterial supply of the gallbladder usually arises from the right hepatic artery. Other origins include the left, proper, and common hepatic arteries. We report cases of the cystic artery arising from the superior mesenteric artery and arising ... Read more...

Comparison of 40 and 60 milliliters of contrast in assessment of the carotid artery by computed tomography angiography.

30 Oct 2008 BACKGROUND: Although fast acquisition of multidetector-row computed tomography (MDCT) can make it possible to acquire sufficient early vascular enhancement using small volumes and high concentrations of contrast material (CM), there are still some ... Read more...

Abdomen: angiography with 16-detector CT--comparison of image quality and radiation dose between studies with 0.625-mm and those with 1.25-mm collimation.

29 Sep 2008 PURPOSE: To prospectively compare image quality and volume computed tomographic (CT) dose index (CTDI(vol)) of 16-detector CT angiograms of the abdomen acquired with 0.625-mm collimation with those of images acquired with 1.25-mm collimation. ... Read more...
