We describe how the fusion process between magnetic resonance angiography (MRA) and cisternography (MRC) promptly reveals vessel anatomy ahead of the clot, in patients affected by acute anterior circulation large vessel occlusion. This technique showed in 100% of subjects (n = 22) a clear tracing of vessel anatomy before and beyond the clot. The duration of the whole process is short and could be considered safe since no outcome differences have been found when compared with a control group (n = 23). This technique could play a relevant role in guiding endovascular therapy, especially in unexpected unfavorable anatomical arteries configurations.
我们描述了磁共振血管造影（MRA）和脑池造影（MRC）融合过程如何迅速揭示血栓前方的血管解剖结构，适用于急性前循环大血管闭塞的患者。该技术在 100%的患者（n=22）中均能在血栓前后清晰地追踪血管解剖结构。整个过程耗时短，且安全性较高，与对照组（n=23）相比，并未发现结局存在差异。该技术可能在指导血管内治疗方面发挥重要作用，尤其是在预期不理想的动脉解剖结构中。
