Figure 1From: Multidetector-row computed tomography for evaluating the branching angle of the celiac artery: a descriptive study Classification of the branching angle. The anterior side of the abdominal aorta was regarded as the baseline, and the cranial and caudal sides were designated as 0 and 180 degrees, respectively. The branching angles between 0 and 90 and 180 degrees from the cranial side were regarded as upward and downward, respectively, and the celiac arterial branching angle was classified every 30 degrees.Back to article page
