    Notes: Summary With high resolution computed tomography (CT) of the skull, performing rapid series of 1.5 mm slices during an intravenous bolus injection of contrast medium, an angiography-like image (angio-CT) of the basal cerebral arteries can be obtained. From 76 consecutive angiographically or autopsy-verified cerebral aneurysms of vaious size down to 3 mm in diameter, 74 (97.4%) were shown up by the angio-CT. One ruptured and one incidental aneurysm escaped CT visualization. Besides the correct localization of the aneurysms, angio-CT provides information concerning the size and main direction of the aneurysms and yields, in addition, a coronal view of the aneurysms and their surrounding structures. Pitfalls for mis-diagnosis can be the following: Aneurysms of below 5 mm in diameter, located at the supraclinoid part of the carotid artery, multiple or non-ruptured aneurysms, bony or movement artefacts, poorly contrasted vessels due to wrong injection technique of contrast medium or vasospasm, and incorrect interpretation.

    Notes: Abstract MRI perfusion studies have focussed mainly on acute ischaemia and characterisation in ischaemia. Our purpose was to analyse regional brain haemodynamic information in acute, subacute, and chronic ischaemia. We performed 16 examinations of 11 patients on a 1.5 T MR images. Conventional and dynamic contrast-enhanced imaging were employed in all examinations. For the dynamic susceptibility sequences, a bolus (0.2 mmol/kg) of gadopentetate dimeglumine was injected. Reconstructed regional relative cerebral blood volume (rCBV) maps, bolus maps, and conventional images were analysed by consensus reading. In all examinations decreases in rCBV were observed in the lesions. The distribution of regional rCBV in lesions was heterogeneous. The rCBV of the periphery of the lesions was higher than that at their center. There was a correlation between the time since onset and abnormalities on the rCBV map and T2-weighted images (T2WI). In the early stage of acute stroke, the abnormalities tended to be larger on the rCBV than on T2WI. Many patterns of bolus passage were observed in ischaemic regions. rCBV maps provide additional haemodynamic information in patients with brain infarcts.
