CTA is an advanced neurovascular imaging scan that detects damaged blood vessels such that rapid treatment for conditions such as brain injuries, aneurysm and/or stroke can be initiated.

CTA can also provide characteristic images of femoropopliteal graft-related aneurysms and mycotic aneurysms but can be misleading in cases of hematoma adjacent to the neurovascular bundle.

Computerized Tomography (CT) scan uses multiple x-ray images taken from different angles to produce pictures of the brain. A computerized tomography angiogram (CTA) is a CT scan with ... any dangerous ...

A brain aneurysm is an area of weakness in a brain blood vessel that over time can grow larger and thinner. Aneurysms are dangerous because they can grow and eventually rupture allowing blood to leak ...

If an aneurysm is suspected, doctors may use a CT scan or MRI to create detailed images of the brain. A CT angiography (CTA) or magnetic resonance angiography (MRA) can provide a clearer view of ...

Cerebral angiography remains the gold standard to demonstrate the ruptured aneurysm, although computed tomography angiography can detect aneurysms with comparable sensitivity. The modified Fisher ...
