Abstract

The introduction of multi slice CT was a real breakthrough. The new generation of multislice CT scanners offering simultaneous acquisition of several multi sub-millimetric slices represents an important leap on the way towards true high resolutional, perfectional scanning.
Advantages of CT over other imaging modalities especially when concerning vascular pathologies detection include mainly: relatively less expensive, more widely available, less invasive, easy to perform, better spatial resolution and comprehensive nature of CT imaging. Therefore allowing MDCT angiography to easily compete against other well reputed imaging modalities as MR imaging.
The performance of multislice CT scanners have resulted in a regained interest for CT imaging modalities. Multi slice CT (MSCT) has had a substantial effect on CTA, offering shorter acquisition times, lower doses of contrast medium, and improved spatial resolution for assessing smaller arterial branches.
The superior evolution of multi slice CT technique has enabled faster high detectability and diagnostic capabilities across a wide spectrum of clinical indications. These include multi row detector CT angiography of mesenteric vascular pathologies.
