A newly developed method of spiral computed tomography (CT) angiography was employed for 19 consecutive hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) patients who underwent hepatectomy. Fine images of the intrahepatic vascular structure, portal venous branches and hepatic veins, and HCC nodules were obtained in 16 patients. A more accurate and easier understanding of the relationship between the intrahepatic vascular structure and the HCC nodules was provided by this spiral CT angiography compared with any other imaging modality.
