Abstract
Endovascular stent grafting of abdominal aortic aneurysms is a new techniqu e that may replace open surgery in selected cases, Pre- and postoperative a ngiography can be replaced by helical CT. This pictorial essay describes an d illustrates the use of multislice helical CT where maximum intensity proj ection and multiplanar reformats play a central role in the evaluation.
