 PAGE \* MERGEFORMAT 20 16-slice spiral CT angiography in the diagnosis and treatment of cerebral aneurysms value Of: Yusheng Nan Ya Peng Xing Wei Chen Wenhua Era Directed [Abstract] Objective To evaluate 16-slice spiral CT angiography (CTA) in the diagnosis and treatment of cerebral aneurysms in clinical application. Methods 382 patients with suspected cerebral aneurysms were included in this study, all underwent 16 slice CTA examination. The use of maximum intensity projection and volume rendering technical evaluation of aneurysm shape, size, shape and location and aneurysm neck aneurysms and the relationship between the skull and the surrounding blood vessels, and 16-slice CTA according to the results of endovascular treatment options or surgical treatment. Results in 382 cases 203 of 223 patients found that spiral CTA diagnosis of cerebral aneurysms .16 for all aneurysms the sensitivity, specificity and accuracy were 97.8%, 97.8% and 97.8% .16 slice CTA for the accuracy of diagnosis of aneurysms DSA results with no significant difference. by CTA evaluation found that the 136 aneurysms for endovascular treatment, in which 132 aneurysms embolization .53 aneurysms successful surgical clipping for treatment, surgery is that all of the aneurysm successfully clipped. Conclusion 16-slice spiral CTA in the diagnosis of cerebral aneurysms with high accuracy, and can provide sufficient diagnostic information to guide the treatment of aneurysms. [Keywords:] CT angiography, aneurysm, diagnosis, treatment [Abstract] Objective To assess the clinical value of 16-slice CT angiography (CTA) in diagnosis and treatment of cerebral aneurysms. Methods 382 patients were included in the study and successively underwent 16-slice CTA examination for suspected cerebral aneurysms. Using maximum- intensity projections and volume-rendering techniques, two neuroradiologists performed the morphology, size and location of the aneurysms, neck geometry, and the relationship of a
