Primary Carcinoma of the Liver: its Diagnosis by Radiographic Techniques

A case of primary carcinoma of the liver is reported in which the tumour was accurately localised using tran-splenic portal venography, hepatic venography and pneumoperitonography. The site of the growth, in the anterosuperior segment of the right hepatic lobe, was confirmed at operation. The radiological methods which may be used to delineate both primary and secondary tumours of the liver are discussed.
