Fig. 5From: Utilizing 3D printing to assist pre-procedure planning of transjugular intrahepatic portosystemic shunt (TIPS) procedures: a pilot studyVariable Opacification of the Hepatic Vessels(A) Contrast enhanced CT in the portal venous phase displayed in the axial plane shows opacification of the hepatic vessels (arrows) making segmentation challenging but possible. (B) Contrast enhanced CT in the venous phase displayed in the axial plane demonstrates very poor opacification of the hepatic vessels (arrow) making segmentation and model creation impossibleBack to article page
