Abstract

CT angiography (CTA) can be used for planning procedural and operative therapies for neonatal vascular lesions, such as congenital hemangiomas (CH), that are too morbid for medical therapy. Neonatal anatomy can be displayed within a small enough field-of-view that the nominal resolution of a modern CT scanner can be realized with a standard 512 × 512 storage matrix, yielding isometric ultrahigh resolution data and allowing for microvascular volume visualization. This case report details the creation and use of microvascular volume visualizations of CTA data during pre-procedural planning for treatment of this pathological entity.
