Renal Arteriography
Renal Arteriography
- Abdominal Aortogram: identification of ostia of the renal arteries and accessory renal arteries (25% of population)
- Arteriography should include both the arterial phase and the nephrographic phase
- Disease involving renal bifurcations require cranial or caudal angulation to open out the lesion
- Evidence of aortic atheroma: technique of no-touch angiography is recommended
