Abstract

ABSTRACT

Safe and effective spinal angiography and intervention require an in-depth understanding of the angioarchitecture of the spinal cord blood supply. Spinal angiography requires meticulous technique, whether the level of abnormality is known or not. Particulate agents, liquid agents, detachable balloons, and platinum coils are the primary embolic agents used for endovascular occlusions of spinal lesions. A large number of lesions are amenable to cure via the endovascular route, and embolization can play an important role in the preoperative work-up.
