Spontaneous Recanalization of Internal Carotid Artery Occlusion
Stroke 34:1032-1034, Nguyen-Huynh,M.N.,et al, 2003
See this aricle in Pubmed

Article Abstract
CTA, an accurate, rapid, and less invasive modality than conventional catheter arteriography, can be used to serially monitor anticoagulated patients with new-onset ICA occlusion for potential spontaneous vascular recanalization. The ability to conveniently assess ICA patency not only may influence management of individual patients but also could help us better establish the true incidence of spontaneous carotid recanalization in future studies.
