I asked my doctor about Mals and he said I had a CT scan with IV contrast and celiac artery narrowing wasn't mention. He said he has looks for this a few times. Liz

@lgumerman -
I found that before my diagnosis I had been seen at Mayo and a CT with contrast did not show it but a Duplex ultrasound did.
Also, recently before my new stent was placed I had a regular chest CT that caught the narrowed celiac artery by chance.
CT angiogram or Duplex ultrasound are the definitive tests for diagnosis.
Let me see if I can connect you with the MALS group.
