Summary

Angiotomography has permitted the evaluation of the normal carotid circulation on various vascular planes, perfectly parallel and at a well known distance. It has been therefore possible to carry out an analytical and spatial study of the vessels. This technique has also allowed the identification and the spatial location, during the capillary phase, of certain anatomical structures, such as the caudate nucleus, the putamen, the body of the lateral ventricle, etc.

The application of simultaneous tomography to normal carotid angiography has thus made a valuable contribution to the criteria of evaluation of the normal radioanatomical pictures.

Résumé

L'angiotomographie a permis l'évaluation de la circulation carotidienne normale sur divers plans vasculaires parfaitement parallèles, situés à une distance connue et constante. Il a donc été possible d'effectuer une étude analytique et spatiale des vaisseaux. En outre, cette technique a permis d'identifier et de localiser dans l'espace pendant la phase capillaire certaines structures anatomiques, telles que le noyau caudé le putamen, le corps du ventricule latéral, etc.

L'application de la tomographie simultanée à l'angiographie carotidienne normale fournit une contribution remarquable pour compléter les critères d'évaluation des images radio-anatomiques normales.

Zusammenfassung

Die Angiotomographie hat die Bewertung des normalen Karotiskreislaufs auf verschiedenen, äußerst parallelen Gefäßebenen bekannter Entfernung gestattet. Es war folglich eine analytische und räumliche Untersuchung der Gefäße möglich. Eine solche Technik hat ferner die Identifizierung, in der kapillären Phase, einiger anatomischen Strukturen, wie des Nucl. caudatus, des Putamen, der Cella media des Ventrikels usw. ermöglicht. Demzufolge hat die Anwendung der mit der Karotisangiographie simultan durchgeführten Tomographie einen bedeutenden Beitrag zur Vervollkommnung der Beurteilungskriterien von normalen Röntgen-anatomischen Aufnahmen geliefert.
