[Angiography in extracranial vascular processes (author's transl)].
Summary
This study reviews extracranial vessel angiography techniques and anatomy from 1321 cases. Catheter angiography is the primary method for diagnosing cerebral vascular insufficiency, aneurysms, trauma, and tumors.
Area of Science:
- Vascular Surgery
- Diagnostic Imaging
- Neurology
Background:
- Extracranial vascular anatomy is crucial for diagnosing cerebrovascular diseases.
- Angiography remains a key diagnostic tool for evaluating extracranial vessels.
Purpose of the Study:
- To describe the anatomy and techniques of extracranial vessel angiography.
- To analyze indications and outcomes of 1321 angiography cases.
Main Methods:
- Review of 1321 cases undergoing extracranial vessel angiography.
- Detailed discussion of catheter-based angiography techniques.
- Analysis of indications including cerebral vascular insufficiency, aneurysm, trauma, and tumor.
Main Results:
- Catheter technique was the most frequently employed method.
- Cerebral vascular insufficiency was the primary indication for angiography.
- Angiography provided valuable diagnostic information for various extracranial conditions.
Conclusions:
- Extracranial vessel angiography, particularly using catheter techniques, is essential for diagnosing cerebrovascular insufficiency and other pathologies.
- The study highlights the importance of understanding vascular anatomy and procedural techniques for optimal diagnostic yield.
