The patient has to lie nearly motionless for about 20 seconds, which requires a high level of compliance and is not always feasible in patients suffering from cerebrovascular disease. 13 14 Iv-ACT is a promising new technique for minimally invasive follow-up after intracranial stenting. Other possible applications can be envisaged, such as diagnostic and follow-up imaging before and after endovascular treatment of intracranial aneurysms or arteriovenous malformations.
