Intravenous 3D digital subtraction angiography in the diagnosis of unruptured intracranial aneurysms.
نویسندگان
چکیده
Recent progress in digital subtraction angiography (DSA) devices makes it possible to perform rotational angiography with high resolution and high sensitivity. We tried intravenous (IV) 3D DSA in patients who had undergone MR angiography (MRA) suggestive of unruptured intracranial aneurysms. IV 3D DSA can be used as an alternative method for imaging unruptured intracranial aneurysms suggested on MRA.

Radiographic diagnosis and endovascular treatment of an unruptured superior hypophyseal aneurysm
A 37-year-old female with a large unruptured superior hypophyseal aneurysm underwent a guglielmi detachable-coil embolization after proper diagnostic three-dimensional digital subtraction angiography (DSA) of the internal carotid artery. Only a few case reports exist in the scientific literature about this uncommon entity that accounts for 1% of all intracranial aneurysms. We discuss the etiolo...
متن کاملAn overview of intracranial aneurysms
Intracranial aneurysms are relatively common, with a prevalence of approximately 4%. Unruptured aneurysms may cause symptoms mainly due to a mass effect, but the real danger is when an aneurysm ruptures, leading to a subarachnoid hemorrhage. Most aneurysms are asymptomatic and will not rupture, but they grow unpredictably and even small aneurysms carry a risk of rupture. Intracranial aneurysms ...
متن کاملDiagnostic accuracy of CT angiography with matched mask bone elimination for detection of intracranial aneurysms: comparison with digital subtraction angiography and 3D rotational angiography.
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE Our aim was to determine the diagnostic accuracy of multisection CT angiography combined with matched mask bone elimination (CTA-MMBE) for detection of intracranial aneurysms compared with digital subtraction angiography (DSA) and 3D rotational angiography (3DRA). MATERIALS AND METHODS Between January 2004 and February 2006, 108 patients who presented with clinically su...

BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE The authors evaluated the impact of morphologic and hemodynamic factors on multiple intracranial aneurysms and aimed to identify which parameters can be reliable indexes as one aneurysm ruptured, and the others did not. METHODS Between June 2011 and May 2014, 69 patients harboring multiple intracranial aneurysms (69 ruptured and 86 unruptured) were analyzed from 3D-digi...
متن کامل3D rotational digital subtraction angiography may underestimate intracranial aneurysms: findings from two basilar aneurysms.
3D digital subtraction angiography (DSA) allows clinicians to review intracranial aneurysms and other vascular lesions. We report 2 basilar aneurysms that were imaged by both 3D DSA and DynaCT. These 2 techniques produced very different aneurysm appearances. Anterior portions of the aneurysms were invisible on 3D DSA but were revealed by DynaCT. These aneurysms appeared to have been flattened b...
