title: [Spiral CT angiography].
abstract: Spiral CT angiography (CTA) is a promising technique for the evaluation of vascular lesions. We review some important technical aspects in CTA such as longitudinal resolution, determination of injection scan interval and limitations of three-dimensional rendering techniques. Several current and potential applications are discussed.
