[Multidisciplinary radiological diagnosis of hepatic angioma in cancer patients]

72 cases of hepatic angioma were examined. These were occasionally found during control investigations of patients treated for extrahepatic primary cancer, or revealed by ultrasound studies of patients not supposed to be affected by cancer. Prospective comparison in 18 cases was made between echotomographic, tomodensitometric and angiographic findings with purpose of pointing out possible correlations between the X-ray images and the anatomopathological pictures. Finally, the best diagnostic procedure was established for suspected hepatic angioma, in both a cancerous and a non cancerous patients.
