The current quiz includes normal and pathological axial CT images at the level of the superior mesenteric artery (SMA) and superior mesenteric vein (SMV). The SMV is normally located to the right of the SMA and is of a larger caliber. Various pathologies such as malignancy, infection or vascular disease can alter the position and/or appearance of the SMA, SMV and the surrounding anatomical structures present at this level. Understanding how normal anatomy is altered by pathology at this level will facilitate improved interpretation of abdominal CT images.https://aojnmb.mums.ac.ir/article_18045_d7823e1cc9e1bf40f4da605ab664161e.pdfcomputed tomographyabdomensuperior mesenteric artery and vein |
