Case Reports Comparative Study
[CT and PRI angiographic findings in dissection of the neck arteries].
To determine the usefulness of CT angiography (CTA) and MR angiography (MRA) for evaluation of dissection in cervical vessels. ⋯ CT and MR angiography was successful for detection of typical morphology of dissection in all cases. If results in a greater number can be obtained it seems to be conceivable that both methods can be used in primary diagnosis.

We report on our first experience in imaging the cerebral veins and sinuses with CT angiography (CTA). ⋯ CTA is a suitable noninvasive method to study cerebral veins as it is superior to conventional CT because of high resolution and intravascular contrast. To assess the sensitivity of CTA for diagnosis of venous sinus thrombosis a prospective study is needed.
