CT angiography with electrocardiographically gated reconstruction for visualizing pulsation of intracranial aneurysms: identification of aneurysmal protuberance presumably associated with wall thinning.

چکیده
Electrocardiographically (ECG) gated multisection helical CT images were obtained in 23 patients with ruptured intracranial aneurysms. 4D-CTA (3D CT angiography plus phase data) images were generated by ECG-gated reconstruction. Four patients showed pulsation of an aneurysmal bleb. Clipping was performed in two of these patients, and the rupture site matched the pulsatile bleb seen in 4D-CTA.

متن کاملCardiac cycle-related volume change in unruptured cerebral aneurysms: a detailed volume quantification study using 4-dimensional CT angiography.
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE The hemodynamic factors of aneurysms were recently evaluated using computational fluid dynamics in a static vessel model in an effort to understand the mechanisms of initiation and rupture of aneurysms. However, few reports have evaluated the dynamic wall motion of aneurysms due to the cardiac cycle. The objective of this study was to quantify cardiac cycle-related volume...
