Non-invasive cross-sectional imaging techniques play a crucial role in the assessment of the vascular disease processes. Computed tomography angiography (CTA) is an imaging method of choice for a wide range of vascular diseases that span across different vascular territories. A diagnostic quality CTA requires a robust imaging protocol tailored according to the physiologic state and vascular area of interest. This review article is aimed to provide an overview of the technical considerations and clinical applications of CTA.
非侵入性横断面成像技术在血管疾病进程的评估中发挥着关键作用。计算机断层扫描血管造影(CTA)是针对跨越不同血管区域的多种血管疾病的首选成像方法。高质量诊断CTA需要根据生理状态和感兴趣的血管区域量身定制稳健的成像方案。本文综述旨在概述CTA的技术要点和临床应用。
