Abstract
- The introduction of detachable coils in treating cerebral aneurysm patients has revolutionized the management of this disease in the past 15 years. The advancement of imaging resolution and the use of three dimensional imaging not only with catheterized conventional angiography, but also with CTA and MRA have enabled a more thorough evaluation and accurate diagnosis of cerebral aneurysms prior to intervention and has also aided in the treatment process. Therefore, it is essential to organize past studies and create an up to date general diagnostic guideline.
