Angiographic C-arm CT visualization of the Woven EndoBridge cerebral aneurysm embolization device (WEB): first experience in an animal aneurysm model.

摘要

In vivo C-arm CT imaging of the WEB is feasible and allows precise determination of the position and deployment status of the device. On contrast-enhanced images the occlusion status of aneurysms and the positioning of the WEB in relationship to the parent artery can be evaluated. C-arm-CT may serve as a minimal-invasive follow-up imaging modality.
