Radiologic examinations were revieved in 68 patients with liver lesions. Fifteen patient had computed tomography (CT) examination, 68 of them also had ultrasonograpy (US) and angiography in analysis of lesions true positive findings were observed at CT, US and angiography in 87 per cent, 88 per cent and 66 per cent respectively. Angiography, mainly performed to show the vascular anatomy, localization of lesion, patency of the portal vein and not to optimize in tornor detection. Angiography was showed 42 per cent of the malign lesions. Angiograpy was effective in the diagnosis of hemangiornas (%85). It was also diagnotic to show the ekstravasation from the hepatic artery after an operation. Finally, we think- that angiography was an invasive examination method but it was also very effective in the diagnosis of the some liver lesions.
