    Journal: Neuroradiology; 1985; 27(2):155-7. PubMed ID: 3887204.
    Abstract:
    Demonstration that intracranial circulation has ceased is the ultimate proof of brain death. This study was performed to evaluate digital subtraction angiography (DSA) compared with conventional cerebral angiography in the diagnosis of brain death. Intravenous as well as intraarterial DSA was found suitable in the diagnosis of arrested intracranial circulation.
