Carotid endarterectomy without angiography.
Carotid endarterectomy without preoperative angiography is a viable alternative that avoids the risk of angiography and potentially reduces the overall morbidity and mortality associated with the workup of patients with carotid artery disease and surgical management. The success of this approach is dependent upon the accuracy of the history and physical examination, acquisition of a CT head sca...
متن کاملArterial pressure studies during carotid angiography.
In a study of 92 patients undergoing carotid angiography under general anaesthesia, marked changes in arterial pressure were infrequent. Possible reasons for this include fewer poor-risk patients, a lighter level of anaesthesia involving controlled ventilation, and the replacement of uriodone (Diodone) by less toxic contrast media.
متن کاملCarotid body detection on CT angiography.
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE Advances in multidetector CT provide exquisite detail with improved delineation of the normal anatomic structures in the head and neck. The carotid body is 1 structure that is now routinely depicted with this new imaging technique. An understanding of the size range of the normal carotid body will allow the radiologist to distinguish patients with prominent normal carotid...
متن کاملQuantification of carotid stenosis on CT angiography.
PURPOSE Carotid artery stenosis quantification uses percent diameter ratios from conventional angiography. Multidetector high-speed CT angiography (CTA) allows direct millimeter measurement of carotid stenosis. We hypothesize a linear relationship between millimeter stenosis measurements and derived percent, alleviating cumbersome ratio calculations. METHODS Two neuroradiologists separately r...
متن کاملContrast-enhanced magnetic resonance angiography carotid arteries.
Angiography Carotid Arteries To the Editor: We were very interested to read the recent study by Johnston et al1 regarding the use of contrast-enhanced MRA (CEMRA) for carotid stenosis. The authors correctly highlight in their introduction the limitations of many current studies of noninvasive tests. We, however, remain to be convinced that their own study is an adequate reflection of the perfor...
