Is there an inherited anatomical conformation favoring aneurysmal formation of the anterior communicating artery?

abstract：:In clinical follow-up studies after radiosurgery, imaging modalities such as computerized tomography (CT) and magnetic resonance (MR) imaging are used. Accurate determination of the residual lesion volume is necessary for realistic assessment of the effects of treatment. Usually, the diameters rather than the volume o...
