We report a case showing "pseudoocclusion" of the internal carotid artery as a pitfall on intracranial MRA. Pseudoocclusion was attributed to magnetic susceptibility artifacts with metallic substances located proximal to a slab. The same finding could be reproduced on experimental MRA with a small steel coil applied on the anterior neck of a volunteer at the level of the carotid bifurcation.
我们报告一例显示颈内动脉“假性闭塞”的病例,这是颅内磁共振血管造影(MRA)中的一个陷阱。假性闭塞归因于位于层面近端的金属物质引起的磁敏感性伪影。在志愿者颈动脉分叉水平的前颈部施加一个小钢圈的实验性MRA中可以重现相同的发现。
