[3D-CT angiography with volume rendering technique in the intracerebral aneurysms]
1Service de Neuroradiologie H Fischgold, Hôpital de La Salpêtrière, 47, boulevard de l'Hôpital, 75651 Paris Cedex 13.
Purpose:
Many techniques of 3D reconstruction (MIP, SSD) permit a good evaluation of the circle of Willis in order to detect cerebral aneurysms. More recently, the advent in the clinical practice of a calculation algorithm (VRT) adapted to the workstations for images treatment seems to improve evaluation of the characteristics regarding these aneurysms.
Materials And Methods:
We report 4 cases with cerebral aneurysms studies with CT-angiography using the technique MIP and VRT.
Results:
The VRT, using the totality of image informations, allows a better understanding than MIP about the intracranial cerebral aneurysms including their constitution and 3D localization.
Conclusion:
The VRT reconstruction permits to obtain quickly good quality and reproductive images, without relationship with threshold.
