Background and Purpose—Computed tomographic angiography (CTA) is a relatively new
and minimally invasive method of imaging intracranial and extracranial blood vessels. The …

BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE: To compare multisection CT angiography (CTA) analyzed
with source/maximum intensity projection (MIP) images as well as semiautomated vessel …

Objective: assessment of the degree of stenosis is the central point in the treatment of carotid
stenosis. The purpose of our study was to assess whether invasive CT angiography (CTA) is …

Background and Purpose No previous study has compared the reliability of carotid artery
measurement provided by axial images, shaded surface display (SSD), and maximum …

CT angiography of the carotid bifurcation. METHODS Anatomic phantoms were created in …

PURPOSE: To determine whether computed tomographic (CT) angiography with the volume-
rendering technique (VRT) can be used to accurately quantify carotid arterial stenosis and to …

The purpose of this study was to compare the abilities of color-coded duplex sonography,
CT angiography, and selective digital subtraction angiography to reveal disease requiring …

The purpose of this prospective study was to compare CT angiography with conventional
catheter angiography for imaging the bifurcation of the common carotid artery in patients …

The aim of this paper was to determine the correlation between calcium burden (expressed
as a volume) and extent of stenosis of the origin of the internal carotid artery (ICA) by CT …

BACKGROUND Prevention of stroke is aided by determination of the degree of carotid artery
stenosis and progression of arterial sclerosis. Three-dimensional computed tomography …
