Arterial angiograms of chest and head. Thoracic angiogram obtained via brachiocephalic cannulation (a) and extension of the radiographic field to the head (b) to illustrate the arteries derived from the carotids. The position of the balloon catheter is indicated in (a) with a box. The usual craniocaudal orientation is reversed in (b), with the snout pointing toward the inferior part of the image. MA: mandibular artery; BA: basilar artery; ICA: internal carotid artery; ECA: external carotid; MCA: middle cerebral artery; ACA: anterior cerebral artery; RM: rete mirabile.
