Neuroangiography

Neuroangiography remains the prime modality to evaluate neurovascular abnormality. A safe and thorough study is a critical factor in terms of diagnosis and treat-ment plans for patients. This article discusses normal neurovascular anatomy, examines common neurovascular disease, identifies specific challenges in evaluation and reviews techniques to overcome the difficulties.
