The right caudocranial oblique (RACCO) view which is obtained by tilting the image intensifier 25 degrees caudally and 30 degrees to the right while the patients lie in supine position is proposed for improved depiction of the portal venous system. Transarterial portography with digital subtraction angiography was performed in the RACCO and posteroanterior (PA) views in 32 patients. Comparison of the two views revealed that the RACCO view was superior to the PA view of the left main branch in 25 patients (78%) and of the right posterior lobe branch in 24 (75%) patients. Visibility of more distal portal branches, however, did not always improve by RACCO view. RACCO view will be useful for the evaluation of portal systems of primary and secondary hepatic neoplasms as a special view following portogram in PA projection when more detailed information is necessary on proximal portal branches.
