Spiral computed tomography angiography in the assessment of middle cerebral artery occlusive disease.
There has been no report on the use of spiral computed tomography angiography (CTA) in the investigation of intracranial cerebral artery stenosis. A prospective pilot study was conducted to investigate the feasibility of CTA in the diagnosis of intracranial occlusive disease and its correlation with transcranial Doppler. With transcranial Doppler, 10 patients with acute ischaemic stroke with mi...
متن کاملNoninvasive assessment of coronary artery stenoses by multidetector-row spiral computed tomography: comparison with conventional angiography.
BACKGROUND Coronary artery disease (CAD) is the most common cause of hospitalization and mortality in many industrialized countries. We analysed the diagnostic accuracy of multi-detector row spiral computed tomography (MDCT) in determining mid- to high-grade coronary artery stenoses (> 50%). METHODS Sixty-nine patients with suspected CAD were referred to MDCT coronary angiography. Patients wi...
متن کاملMiddle cerebral artery occlusion: correlation of computed tomography and angiography with clinical outcome.
The clinical outcome of 40 cases with middle cerebral artery (MCA) occlusion was examined in relation to the site of occlusion and the findings on computed tomography (CT). Patients were treated conservatively without surgery. A few had decompressive craniotomy when necessary. Outcome in 7 (18%) was good, in 6 (15%) moderate, and in 15 (38%) severe; 12 (30%) died by the follow-up at 3 months. I...
متن کاملEfficacy of superficial temporal artery-middle cerebral artery bypass in cerebrovascular steno-occlusive diseases: Hemodynamics assessed by perfusion computed tomography
OBJECTIVES Our purpose of this study was to assess the cerebral hemodynamic improvement with perfusion computed tomography (CT), before and after superficial temporal artery (STA) to middle cerebral artery (MCA) bypass surgery in patients with cerebrovascular steno-occlusive diseases including both moyamoya disease and nonmoyamoya steno-occlusions. MATERIALS AND METHODS Twenty-four STA-MCA by...
متن کاملMiddle cerebral artery perfusion pressure in cerebrovascular occlusive disease.
We measured the MCAP (middle cerebral artery pressure)/MSBP (mean systemic blood pressure) ratio in 76 patients who underwent an EIAB (extracranial-intracranial arterial bypass). Patients were divided into groups on the basis of angiographic findings. We found a definite correlation between increasing angiographic cerebral vascular occlusive disease and lower MCAP/MSBP ratios. Six of 32 patient...
