A control group including normal and atherosclerotic ICAs was formed for comparison, and a blind interpretation of CT images was made by two observers. We evaluated the presence of stenosis, eccentric lumen, mural thickening, aneurysm, occlusion, and annular contrast enhancement. When the artery seemed to be occluded, we measured the external diameter of the ICA (1) on the occluded side, at its upper portion and most enlarged level, (2) at its lower portion, beyond the bulb, and (3) on the contralateral side, at its upper portion.\n          <\/jats:p>\n          <jats:p>\n            <jats:italic>Results<\/jats:italic>\n            Interobserver agreement was good except for the presence of annular contrast enhancement. In the stenotic dissection group (n=12), the presence of a narrowed eccentric lumen at the upper portion of the ICA on axial CT images was classified correctly in all cases (sensitivity, 100%; specificity, 100%). An arterial wall thickening was seen in all cases of dissection but also in three cases of the control group. In the occlusive dissection group (n=6), the enlargement of the dissected artery was the best criterion (sensitivity, 100%, specificity, 100%) for occlusive dissection.\n          <\/jats:p>\n          <jats:p>\n            <jats:italic>Conclusions<\/jats:italic>\n            Helical CT seems to be a reliable method for evaluating extracranial ICA dissection. The analysis of the residual arterial lumen and the measurement of the external diameter of the carotid artery were the best criteria for the diagnosis. Further studies with larger groups are required to determine whether ICA dissections might be diagnosed using helical CT as a first procedure.\n          <\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1161\/01.str.27.3.461","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2011,6,17]],"date-time":"2011-06-17T20:08:03Z","timestamp":1308341283000},"page":"461-466","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1161\/crossmarkpolicy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":119,"title":["Helical CT for the Diagnosis of Extracranial Internal Carotid Artery Dissection"],"prefix":"10.1161","volume":"27","author":[{"given":"X.","family":"Leclerc","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"From the Departments of Radiology (X.L., A.S., J.P.P.) and Neurology (C.L., O.G., D.L.), University Hospital of Lille (France)."}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"O.","family":"Godefroy","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"From the Departments of Radiology (X.L., A.S., J.P.P.) and Neurology (C.L., O.G., D.L.), University Hospital of Lille (France)."}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"A.","family":"Salhi","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"From the Departments of Radiology (X.L., A.S., J.P.P.) and Neurology (C.L., O.G., D.L.), University Hospital of Lille (France)."}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"C.","family":"Lucas","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"From the Departments of Radiology (X.L., A.S., J.P.P.) and Neurology (C.L., O.G., D.L.), University Hospital of Lille (France)."}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"D.","family":"Leys","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"From the Departments of Radiology (X.L., A.S., J.P.P.) and Neurology (C.L., O.G., D.L.), University Hospital of Lille (France)."}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"J.P.","family":"Pruvo","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"From the Departments of Radiology (X.L., A.S., J.P.P.) and Neurology (C.L., O.G., D.L.), University Hospital of Lille (France)."}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"276","reference":[{"key":"e_1_3_2_1_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1159\/000107817"},{"key":"e_1_3_2_2_2","first-page":"27","volume":"5","year":"1984","unstructured":"Houser OW, Mokri B, Sundt TM, Baker HL, Reese DF.
