Ectasia of the basilar artery (EB) may cause different clinical manifestations, and its analysis by imaging methods is fundamental. We tried to analyse radiological aspects in 21 patients with stroke and EB. In all of them, diagnosis could be done by computed tomography. However, magnetic resonance was the most complete diagnostic method for the evaluation of the relationship between EB an surrounding structures.
基底动脉扩张（EB）可能导致不同的临床表现，通过影像学方法对其进行分析至关重要。我们试图分析21例患有中风和EB的患者的放射学特征。在所有这些患者中，计算机断层扫描都能做出诊断。然而，磁共振成像对于评估EB与周围结构之间的关系是最全面的诊断方法。
