Successful renal computed tomographic (CT) arteriogra-phy requires thin collimation and adequate z-axis coverage. With multidetector CT, 1-mm slices covering the necessary volume are feasible for optimal arterial visualization. In this pictorial essay, we illustrate the usefulness of multidetector CT in evaluating normal arterial anatomy, stenosis, and the renal arteries in aortic disease. The techniques for performing the study and three-dimensional rendering are described.
