Abstract

Vasculitides represent the wide-ranging series of complex inflammatory diseases that involve inflammation of blood vessel walls. These conditions are characterized according to the caliber of the predominantly involved vessels. The work-up of vasculitides often includes imaging to narrow a differential diagnosis and guide management. Findings from CT and MR angiography in conjunction with a thorough history and physical exam are of utmost importance in making an accurate diagnosis. Further, imaging can be used for follow-up, in order to monitor disease progression and response to treatment. This wide-ranging literature review serves as the primary resource for clinicians looking to diagnose and monitor the progression of rare vascular inflammatory conditions. This article provides a comprehensive summary of the main findings on imaging related to each of these vasculitides. For each of the named vasculitis conditions, a thorough overview of the diagnostic modalities and their respective findings is described. Many specific hallmarks of pathology are included in this review article.

MR和CT血管造影在血管粥样硬化诊断中的价值。
血管炎是一系列涉及血管壁炎症的复杂炎症性疾病。这些情况的特点是根据主要受累血管的口径。血管增生的检查通常包括影像学检查,以缩小鉴别诊断和指导治疗。CT和MR血管造影的结果结合全面的病史和体格检查对于做出准确诊断至关重要。此外,成像可用于随访,以监测疾病进展和对治疗的反应。这广泛的文献综述作为主要资源的临床医生寻求诊断和监测罕见的血管炎症状况的进展。这篇文章提供了与这些血管相关的主要影像学发现的综合总结。对于每一个命名的血管炎条件,一个全面的概述的诊断方式和他们各自的发现进行了描述。在这篇综述文章中包含了许多具体的病理特征。
