Example of CT usage during a drainage procedure: The patient was a 59 year old female with a postoperative bleed near the pancreatico-gastric anastomosis following liver wedge resection (a). Access from anterior and lateral approaches was not possible because of the left liver (b) and stomach locations (c). Posterior approach was difficult due to the left kidney and splenic arteries. CT (d) was very useful to guide the needle track in 3 dimensions. Once the target had been reached, the operator switched from CT to angiography (e) to set up the drain (f)
