Abstract：Objective To evaluate the clinical value of multi-slice spiral CT angiography (CTA) in intracranial vascular disease. Methods Image data of 40 fracture cases were received with multi-slice spiral CT angiography, including arterial stenosis (n = 14), arterial occlusion (n = 2), aneurysm (n = 9), arteriovenousmal-formation(n = 12), venous malformation (n = 1), moyamoya disease (n = 1) and carotid cavernous fistula(n = 1). Results CTA provided vivid images of intranial vessels and provided useful information of the site, shape, size and the origin of abnormal vascularity. Conclusion Multi-slice spiral CT angiography is a rapid, noninvasive and valid method for detecting intracranial vascular disease. CTA can also provide necessary information for surgical proce-dures.
