    Summary

    Choosing anesthesia for neuroimaging like cerebral angiography involves considering patient cooperation and specific conditions. General anesthesia is reserved for difficult cases, while other procedures often use local anesthesia or none at all.

    Area of Science:

    • Neurology
    • Anesthesiology
    • Radiology

    Background:

    • Cerebral angiography and head CT scans are common neuroimaging procedures.
    • Anesthesia choices for these procedures include general anesthesia, analgosedation, and local anesthesia.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To discuss the criteria for selecting the most appropriate anesthesia method for neuroimaging.
    • To highlight considerations for general anesthesia in neurosurgical patients.

    Main Methods:

    • Review of anesthesia options for cerebral angiography, computed tomography (CT) of the head, discography, myelography, and pneumoencephalography.
    • Discussion of factors influencing anesthesia choice, including patient cooperation and physiological status.

    Main Results:

    • General anesthesia for head CT is typically reserved for patients unable to cooperate.
    • Discography, myelography, and pneumoencephalography are predominantly performed under local anesthesia or without anesthesia.
    • General anesthesia in neurosurgical patients requires careful consideration of pathophysiological conditions like increased intracranial pressure or stenotic vascular processes.

    Conclusions:

    • Anesthesia selection for neuroimaging should be tailored to the specific procedure and patient factors.
    • Careful management of physiological conditions is crucial when general anesthesia is used in neurosurgical patients.
