Fig. 1A —Position of right adrenal vein orifice, its relationship to
surrounding structures, and direction of right adrenal vein. Transverse plane
seen inferiorly shows position of right adrenal vein orifice, which was
estimated along circumference of inferior vena cava (IVC) as an
angle—
—between radius through orifice and x-axis
in xy plane. Intersection of x- and y-axes is
specified as center of IVC. Angle was measured positively in clockwise
direction from x-axis, with a negative angle being in
counterclockwise direction. When falls between 0° and 90°,
right adrenal vein is described as entering IVC in right posterior quadrant;
when falls between –90° and 0°, right adrenal vein is
described as entering in left posterior quadrant.
