Phlebography Splenic

Phlebography of the spleen is a type of x-ray examination that allows you to see the condition of the vessels of the spleen and its structure using a special Phlebograph apparatus. This type of study is often performed in the diagnosis of splenic tumors, liver injuries, and splenic vein thrombosis. This is an important study because it helps to diagnose not only the presence of a tumor, but also to assess the size of the tumor, its location, and its spread to other organs and tissues. Phlebography of the spleen is carried out, as a rule, after surgery, if there is a suspicion of tumor growth close to the serous membrane, in the pleural cavity or near the liver. It is with the help of this research method that one can obtain the most accurate information about the state of the digestive organs and damage near the nodes inside the intestinal walls. To obtain accurate results, you must come to the examination on an empty stomach, since the result with a full stomach will cause errors, because the contrast agent accumulates in the stomach, so images may be distorted.
