TOF-MRA Circle of Willis Inverted MIP |

|
|
|
|
| | This maximum intensity projection (MIP)in the coronal plane shows the brain vessel anatomy and blood supply. The internal carotid arteries (ICA - right and left thick vessels) and the vertebral arteries join together at the base of the brain. The connection of the vertebral arteries forms the basilar artery (seen in the lower, middle part of the picture).

|
| | The MIP in transverse projection shows the circle of Willis, formed around the optic chiasm and the pituitary stalk (brain tissue is not seen due to MIP processing).Seen are the anterior communicating arteries (right and left ICA, right and left anterior cerebral arteries (ACA), anterior communicating artery (ACOM)) and the posterior communicating arteries (right and left posterior communicating arteries (PCOM), right and left posterior cerebral arteries (PCA), basilar artery). | | | |
