Intraarterial digital subtraction angiography applied to diagnosis of hepatocellular carcinoma

Abstract

This paper deals with diagnostic values of intraarterial digital subtraction angiography (IADSA) for evaluating hepatocellular carcinoma. The present series consists of 44 patients with hepatocellular carcinoma, who underwent IADSA combined with conventional hepatic angiography 67 times in total. The evaluated vessels by IADSA included 70 hepatic arteries and 36 portal veins. Comparative studies on the image quality of IADSA with conventional angiography were made in referring to the tumor stain for arteriograms and resolution of intrahepatic portal branches for portograms. Diagnostic superiority including equality of DSA image to conventional was noted in arteriograms: 72.7 % in the right lobe and 86 % in the left. Most deteriorated DSA images were caused by misregistration artifacts. IADSA portography revealed basically diagnostic values to demonstrate lobar, segmental or more peripheral branches in about 95 % of cases studied. DSA, characterized by high contrast resolution and real-time subtraction, offered important and effective informations for interventional angiography as well as resectability of the tumors, requiring less contrast medium.
