A cerebral angiogram (also known as cerebral arteriogram) is a procedure where contrast is injected through an artery and X-Rays are used to visualize the cerebral blood flow. It is performed by neuro-interventional radiology.

Overview

Indications

It can be used to further investigate AV malformations, aneurysms, blood flow to tumor, or other abnormal arterial blood flow.

Surgical procedure

The most common approach is through the femoral artery, though occasionally it can be done through the radial artery (e.g. if patient has history of femoral bypass procedure). Upon access the artery through catheter, contrast is injected with timed X-ray imaging.
