Surg Neurol. 1980 Aug;14(2):111-3.

Abstract

A case is presented of cerebral venous angioma demonstrated by cerebral angiography and by CT scans in the axial and coronal projections after contrast enhancement with high, rapidly administered doses of contrast medium. The respective advantages of the two examinations in the diagnosis of cerebral vascular hamartomas with a slow blood flow are discussed.
