Abstract
MRA and CTA two-dimensional (2D) images are assessed by standard methods described above. The majority of standard CT studies are performed in axial plane, which gives relatively poor information about hemodynamics. In comparison with conventional CT, MRA has certain advantages due to multiplanar images received. Introduction and broad implementation of multislice tomography brought new possibilities to CTA (Randoux et al. 2003; Hackländer et al. 2006).
