title: [3D-CT angiography with volume rendering technique in the intracerebral aneurysms].
abstract: OBJECTIVE
  Many techniques of 3D reconstruction (MIP, SSD) permit a good evaluation of the circle of Willis in order to detect cerebral aneurysms. More recently, the advent in the clinical practice of a calculation algorithm (VRT) adapted to the workstations for images treatment seems to improve evaluation of the characteristics regarding these aneurysms.
  
  
  METHODS
  We report 4 cases with cerebral aneurysms studies with CT-angiography using the technique MIP and VRT.
  
  
  RESULTS
  The VRT, using the totality of image informations, allows a better understanding than MIP about the intracranial cerebral aneurysms including their constitution and 3D localization.
  
  
  CONCLUSIONS
  The VRT reconstruction permits to obtain quickly good quality and reproductive images, without relationship with threshold.
