Cerebral angiography traditionally has been the mainstay of diagnosis in the evaluation of intracranial vascular malformations and, in fact, continues to be the definitive modality for the study of these lesions. However, recent advances in magnetic resonance imaging have resulted in exquisitely detailed noninvasive characterization of intracranial vascular pathology, so that assessment of the lesion itself as well as the associated intracerebral pathology can often be made on anatomic, temporal, and histopathophysiologic bases. This article discusses current imaging techniques in the diagnosis of intracranial vascular malformations and aneurysms.
传统上，脑血管造影一直是评估颅内血管畸形诊断的主要手段，事实上，它仍然是研究这些病变的决定性方法。然而，磁共振成像的最新进展已能对颅内血管病变进行极其详细的无创性特征描述，因此常常可以基于解剖学、时间和组织病理生理学依据对病变本身以及相关的脑内病变进行评估。本文讨论了诊断颅内血管畸形和动脉瘤的当前成像技术。
