CT angiography of superior mesenteric artery syndrome AMERICAN JOURNAL OF ROENTGENOLOGY Konen, E., Amitai, M., Apter, S., Garniek, A., Gayer, G., Nass, S., Itzchak, Y. 1998; 171 (5): 1279-1281

Abstract

Our purpose was to describe the use of CT angiography and three-dimensional (3D) reconstruction in the diagnosis of superior mesenteric artery syndrome in three patients.CT angiography combined with 3D reconstructions is a noninvasive technique that may have a complementary diagnostic role similar to that of angiography in patients with a classic clinical presentation suggestive of superior mesenteric artery syndrome. CT angiography combined with 3D reconstructions should be considered in patients who might otherwise require angiography.
