  • Title: [Stenosis of the carotid arteries in digital subtraction angiography].
    Author: Langer M, Fiegler W, Hedde JP, Eichstädt H, Felix R.
    Journal: Fortschr Neurol Psychiatr; 1985 Jun; 53(6):226-9. PubMed ID: 3894186.
    Abstract:
    The quality of intravenous digital subtraction angiograms was sufficient for diagnostic evaluation in 90%. The accuracy of the method was 90% for the internal carotid artery. 40% of the internal carotid arteries showed stenoses, whereas the common and external carotid arteries were not narrowed in 90%. On behalf of these data the authors consider that i.v. DSA of the carotid vessels is a suitable screening method for carotid arterial occlusive disease.
