Abstract
The authors present two cases of agenesis of the internal carotid artery (I CA) discovered incidentally on magnetic resonance imaging and confirmed on computed tomography, magnetic resonance angiography, and conventional angio graphy. They also propose a clinical algorithm for the workup of patients w ith suspected absence of the ICA.
