Waters view showing diffuse prominent mucosal thickening in the right maxillary sinus and mild nmucosal thickening in the left maxillary sinus. Please note that normal aeration in the maxillary sinuses is demonstrated as relative decreased density of the maxillary sinuses when compared to the density of the orbita.

CTA

The axial MRA using 3T magnet shows a magnified view of the circle of Willis overlaid in color to reflect the component vessels. The supraclinoid portion of the internal carotid (salmon pink) divides into the middle cerebral (MCA dark green) and anterior cerebral (ACA bright green). There is a tiny anterior communicating artery (bright red) that runs between the two anterior cerebrals. The basilar artery (bright pink) gives rise to the posterior cerebral (PCA maroon) and superior cerebellar arteries (white) carotid system. The posterior cerebral artery gives rise to the posterior communicating artery which plugs into the region of the origins of the MCA and ACA. Note the left posterior communicating artery is relatively small which is a normal variant. Each of the carotid and vertebro-basilar systems contributes to the circle of Willis through communicating arteries. The vertebro-basilar system provides the posterior communicating arteries bilaterally from the posterior cerebral and the carotid system provides the anterior communicating arteries via the anterior cerebral arteries. code brain anatomy neuroanatomy normal blood supply vertebral artery basilar artery posterior cerebral artery PCA posterior communicating artery internal carotid anterior communicating artery circle of Willis COW Anterior cerebral artery ACA Middle cerebral artery MCA Davidoff Art Image Courtesy Philips Medical Systems Image Rendered MD Copyright 2010 All rights reserved
The CTA through the circle of Willis with 3D volume rendering shows an aneurysm in close association with the anterior cerebral arteries (bright green). These views allow the visualization of the anterior communicating artery (red) confirming that the origin of the aneurysm is in fact from the anterior communicating artery.
