CTA is crucial for detecting aneurysms, vascular malformations, and stenotic lesions. It provides a rapid and non-invasive method for evaluating vessel integrity and the presence of abnormal dilations or tangles.<\/p><p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"emoji\" role=\"img\" draggable=\"false\" src=\"https:\/\/s.w.org\/images\/core\/emoji\/15.1.0\/svg\/2705.svg\" alt=\"\u2705\" \/>\u00a0<strong>Magnetic Resonance Angiography (MRA)<\/strong>\u00a0\u2013 A non-invasive imaging technique using powerful magnetic fields and radio waves to create highly detailed images of cerebrovascular structures. MRA is particularly useful for detecting unruptured aneurysms and AVMs, assessing blood flow, and identifying vessel abnormalities without exposing patients to ionizing radiation. Contrast-enhanced MRA may be used for even more precise visualization.<\/p><p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"emoji\" role=\"img\" draggable=\"false\" src=\"https:\/\/s.w.org\/images\/core\/emoji\/15.1.0\/svg\/2705.svg\" alt=\"\u2705\" \/>\u00a0<strong>Cerebral Angiography (Digital Subtraction Angiography &#8211; DSA)\u00a0<\/strong>\u2013 Considered the gold standard for detailed vascular assessment, DSA provides real-time, high-resolution images of blood vessels by injecting contrast dye directly into the cerebral arteries through a catheter.
