Neck angiography is a specialized diagnostic imaging technique designed to visualize the vascular structures within the neck region using advanced radiological methods such as CT angiography or digital subtraction angiography. This precise imaging procedure focuses on detailed examination of arterial and venous networks, including the carotid arteries, vertebral arteries, jugular veins, and associated blood vessels that supply critical brain and neck structures. The study involves the strategic injection of contrast material to highlight blood vessel morphology, allowing medical professionals to assess blood flow, detect potential vascular abnormalities, diagnose stenosis, evaluate vessel wall integrity, and identify potential pathological conditions such as arterial blockages, aneurysms, vascular malformations, or areas of narrowing. Radiologists utilize neck angiography to investigate a wide range of clinical scenarios, including stroke risk assessment, cerebrovascular disease evaluation, tumor vascularity mapping, trauma assessment, and comprehensive vascular health screening. The high-resolution imaging provides crucial diagnostic information about blood vessel structure, blood flow dynamics, and potential circulatory system complications, enabling healthcare providers to make informed medical decisions and develop targeted treatment strategies for complex vascular conditions affecting the neck and associated cerebrovascular regions.
