  • Title: Angiography in the diagnosis of liver disease in children.
    Author: Rösch J, Mayer BS, Campbell JR, Neerhout RC.
    Journal: Radiol Clin (Basel); 1977; 46(5):321-39. PubMed ID: 202991.
    Abstract:
    75 angiographic examinations were done in 64 children aged 1 day to 16 years; 41 with various liver diseases and 23 with normal lives. The angiographic diagnosis was accurate in 95% of 44 patients where proof was established by surgery and/or biopsy. Properly used hepatic angiography is a reasonably safe procedure of great value in diagnosing and planning the surgical management of liver masses. It is also a useful tool in the diagnosis of diffuse hepatic processes of neoplastic, inflammatory or degenerative origin.
