National trends in catheter angiography and cerebrovascular imaging

There has been a large increase in the number of non-invasive neurovascular studies performed in the last decade, particularly CT angiograms and MR angiograms. What has this meant for catheter-based angiography? This episode looks at an analysis done on a large claims database in the USA, to observe trends in imaging modalities, as well as the distinctions in use by neurosurgeons and radiologists.

Dr Felipe C. Albuquerque, Editor-in-Chief of JNIS, interviews Dr. Francis Jareczek¹ and Dr. D. Andrew Wilkinson¹, two of the authors of the paper: National trends in catheter angiography and cerebrovascular imaging in a group of privately insured patients in the US.
