ABSTRACT

Intracranial Aneurysms and Other Conditions Cardiologists are rarely involved in the angiographic evaluation and treatment of patientswith intracranial aneurysms or tumors. However, aneurysms may be identified incidentally during cerebral angiography for other reasons (Fig. 26.20), so cardiologists should have an understanding of the incidence, distribution, and outcomes of intracranial aneurysms (Table 26.17). Other incidental findings might include neovascular tumor blush, an arteriovenous fistula, or an AVM.
