MR Angiography with Three-Dimensional Time-of-Flight and Targeted Maximum-Intensity-Projection Reconstructions in the Follow-up of Intracranial Aneurysms Embolized with Guglielmi Detachable Coils AJNR 20:1470-1475,1391, Kahara,V.J.,et al, 1999 See this aricle in Pubmed Article Abstract Overall sensitivity and positive predictive value of MR angiography in revealing aneurysmal remnant cavities were both 90%. Specificity in ruling out a remnant cavity with MR angiography was 91%. One remnant cavity was missed by MR angiog raphy, and in five patients, false adjacent arterial encroachments were reported. MR angiography may be useful in the long-term follow-up of successfully treated small and medium-sized aneurysms after concurrent primary verification of their occlusion wi th DSA.
