Abstract:
Objective To explore the technique of double spiral CT cerebral angiography in order to improve the quality of CTA.Methods All 62 cases underwent cerebral CTA,including vascular lesions in 30,normal in 20 and others in 12.All were scanned with GE Hispeed NX/I CT,three-dimensional models were used in images reconstruction.Results The branches of 1~4 grades of cerebral arteriae could be displayed well in all cases,some cases could also be visible up to 5th grades.All cerebral vascular lesions could be showed by CTA and the same as DSA.Cerebral tumor could be demonstrated with tumor stain.The image quality would be better when the pitch was smaller with the same layer.Conclusion The factors that influence on the quality of CTA images are a lot of,but mostly are concerned with the pitch,contrast volume,injection rate and delayed time.
