Background: To discuss the technique of 64-slice spiral CT subtraction angiography (64-SCTSA) in head and neck, and evaluate its clinical application. Patients and methods: 84 patients suspected of head-neck vascular diseases were examined with 64-SCTSA. The examination techniques, image quality and clinical application were retrospectively analyzed, and the diagnoses of 64-SCTSA were compared with those of surgery or DSA. Results: Eighty-four subjects were successfully examined with 64-SCTSA, whose scanning and imaging parameters are effective. Image quality was excellent in 51 cases (60.7 %), good in 29 (34.5 %) and acceptable in 4 (4.8 %). In the 84 subjects, 79 cases were found abnormal in blood vessel (58 in head and 21 in neck), of which 57 were confirmed by surgical operation or digital subtraction angiography (DSA). Conclusions: 64-SCTSA is a feasible technique with satisfactory image quality and has the advantages of showing the lesions of vasculature without shelter from bone. It can improve the diagnostic accuracy in head-neck vascular diseases.

The incidence rate of cerebral infarction is high, and the risk of death is also grown significantly with age. Atherosclerotic stenosis is a part of the main causes of cerebral infarction. The effect of drug conservative therapy is not ideal. Interventional therapy is tantamount to send the guidewire, catheter and so on to the lesion site using imaging means, and operates the local area to achieve the purpose of a precise treatment. Therefore, it is important to explore the characteristics and high-risk factors of complications for clinical prevention and guidance of treatment righteousness. This study was to investigate the clinical effect of digital subtraction angiography (DSA) in the treatment of ischemic cerebrovascular disease. Also, this paper discusses the clinical effect of digital subtraction angiography (DSA) in the treatment of cerebral infarction. It has been proved that the application of flat detector CT in the interventional room can not only obtain high-quality 3D angiography (3D rotational angiography), but also display the vessels and high-density structures (skeleton, vascular clamp, coil, stent, and ingenious plaque). Fd-ct has also been proved to be able to perform 3D reconstruction on the stent placed in the patient’s heart and the stent of the external carotid artery. Compared with multi-slice spiral CT, the stent is much clearer and can be used to evaluate the soil and stent placement in the treatment of aneurysms.
