With adoption of catheter-based techniques that require technically difficult catheterization, the need for imaging platforms that exploit the advantages of multiple modalities and offer three-dimensional visualization has correspondingly increased. At the authors' institution, C-arm computed tomography (CT) is routinely used to complement conventional digital subtraction angiography for transcatheter therapy. The goal of the present report is to share experience with the use of C-arm CT in hepatic interventions, with the aim to provide practical tips for optimizing image acquisition and postprocessing. Although the authors' direct experience is limited to the equipment of a single manufacturer, many of the principles and guidelines can be readily extrapolated to other C-arm CT systems.
