What is Carotid-Cavernous Fistula Imaging Guide about?
This document summarizes imaging techniques for carotid-cavernous fistulas (CCFs). CCFs are abnormal connections between the carotid artery and cavernous sinus. Digital subtraction angiography is the gold standard diagnostic test but other modalities like CT, MRI, and ultrasound are also useful. CT can detect cavernous sinus enlargement and tortuous veins. MRI can show flow voids and dilated veins. Ultrasound can detect reversed venous flow. Angiography is needed to precisely locate the fistula connection.
