Notes: Injections of the superior mesenteric artery, gastroduodenal artery, proper hepatic artery, and mid splenic artery do not show any suspicious areas. However, the increase in insulin concentration after injection into the proximal splenic artery localizes the lesion close to the pancreatic head area, corresponding to the MRI above (Photograph courtesy of Steven K Libutti and National Institutes of Health, Bethesda, MD, USA).
