1, An x-ray of the arteries (arteriogram or angiogram) or an ultrasound scan are usually performed first to provide more information about the disease in the arteries.

2, An arteriogram is a "road map" of the arteries used to pinpoint the exact location of the blockage in a limb.

3, The superior mesenteric arteriogram is a better method for diagnosing bleeding of low digestive tract.

4, Selective left hepatic arteriogram revealed an active bleeding point and transarterial embolization was then performed using gel-foam cubes.

5, MR imaging and MR angiography have been used to replace conventional arteriogram for diagnosis and follow-up after treatment due to their non-invasive nature and absence of radiation exposure.

6, The underlying mechanism in the majority of such patients has been related to coronary spasm, including in those with amphetamine abuse, in whom the coronary arteriogram was always found normal.

7, Direct imaging at plaque such as IMT or CT coronary arteriogram is much more accurate measures for this purpose.

8, Among them,[http:///arteriogram.html] 17 cases underwent small intestinal barium meal examination and 12 cases underwent superior mesenteric arteriogram.

9, The supply artery and it's branches enlargement, blood pool and regurgitant vein enlargement were showed in 8 cases with hemangioma of small intestine by superior mesenteric arteriogram.

10, Combined diagnosis by abdominal X-Ray, serum AFP assay , liver ultrasound and isotope scan, arteriogram and CT may be helpful in the identification of the tumor nature.
