title: [Role of computed tomography in diagnosis of the vascular system].
abstract: CT Angiography (CTA) is becoming a popular method used in the diagnosis of the vascular system. The authors present own experience acquired from 163 CTA examinations. In 98 cases, the CT angiography images were the elprimary indications for surgery or intervention procedures. Follow-up CTA examinations were performed in 65 of the cases. CT angiography is a reliable method in vascular diagnostics. Further progress in the development of this technique will lead to the replacement conventional angiography in most clinical diagnostic indications.
