[The technique and success rate of transfemoral cerebral angiography]

Amongst 434 transfemoral cerebral catheter angiograms a success rate of 98.16% was achieved. The catheters and manipulations required for successful catheterisation are described. In view of the screening time required, a comparison with needle angiography was made. It was found that catheter angiography was better in all cases in which several cerebral arteries had to be demonstrated.
