Abstract:
The geometric morphology of intracranial arteries has unique characteristics and laws. Congenital variation is also often seen in clinical work. Both have certain clinical significance in the occurrence and development of cerebrovascular diseases, as well as in anatomy and function. This article summarizes some of the findings on the morphology and variation of intracranial arteries in cerebrovascular disease research in recent years, and reviews the imaging techniques of intracranial arteries as well as the clinical significance of geometric morphology and congenital variation.
