Abstract
Axillary artery catheterization can readily be performed by the technic outlined and is the method of choice in vertebral angiography and coronary angiography. In some poor-risk patients with iliac occlusive disease, this procedure offers an alternative method of examination of the abdominal aorta and renal arteries. The radiologist who familiarizes himself with the axillary approach to catheter angiography is in a position to assist his colleagues in a wide variety of special studies.Keywords
