* ACA indicates anterior cerebral artery; MCA, middle cerebral artery.
† The overall quality of the DSA images with respect to the 3D DSA series was graded as excellent, good, sufficient, or insufficient.
‡ The sufficiency of the number of DSA series in diagnosing or excluding an aneurysm was assessed in terms of the following: usefulness for selective catheterization, adequacy in the depiction of all regions of a vascular territory with minimal overlapping, and depiction of the early arterial phase.
