We describe a case of severe traumatic brain injury with multiple facial and skull fractures where CT angiogram (CTA) failed to yield a definite result of brain death as an ancillary test. A 28-year-old man was admitted following a road traffic accident with a Glasgow Coma Score (GCS) of...
You may need a CT angiogram if your clinician detects an abnormality in your blood vessels, brain or other parts of your body. Your clinician may also use the information they receive from this test to create an accurate diagnosis or treatment plan. ...

What is a CT Coronary Angiogram CT scans have been used to look at various anatomic regions, but have not been useful for the heart because the heart is continuously in motion. CT is very effective in looking at “static” areas, such as the brain, abdominal cavity, and extremities. Most...

Abstract The last three decades in neurosurgery have been the era of image-guided surgery. Neurosurgeons who were trained to perform surgery without sophisticated parenchymal imaging, were used to large craniotomies, free-hand biopsies, palpation of the brain surface, and interpretation of angiograms...
