Craniosynostosis: computed tomographic evaluation of skull base and calvarial deformities and associated intracranial changes.

abstract：BACKGROUND:Identification of rupture sites in patients with multiple intracranial aneurysms is largely based on aneurysm size, location, and shape. Finding circumferential enhancement along the aneurysm wall (CEAW) on magnetic resonance (MR) vessel wall imaging was recently shown to be indicative of ruptured aneurysm. ...
