ABSTRACT
SUMMARY: An image guide for aneurysm embolization based on three dimensional CT angiography is reported. Multiplanner reformation (MPR) can measure the neck and dome of the aneurysm accurately enough to select the first coils for aneurysms. For neck evaluation, cut model and virtual endoscope are helpful because we can observe the neck from inside of dome or parent artery. Proximal arteries are visualized by 3D images and MPR if needed. Using laser lithography, we can get a real model of aneurysm and parent artery through which we can insert microcatheters and coils. 3D CTA is a dependable modality for embolization of cerebral aneurysms.
