The assessment and classification of anatomy of hepatic
artery is an essential step for both diagnosis and
management of various diseases in the upper abdomen.
Development of non- invasive imaging techniques for this
purpose is an urgent problem. Our results suggested that
hepatic artery can be assessed and classified by
non-contrast MRA and is comparable to CTA in majority of
patients.
