This document discusses the use of multi-modal CT scanning in evaluating patients with cerebrovascular disease. It begins by introducing ischemic stroke as a leading cause of disability and mortality. It then discusses how CT has evolved as a non-invasive imaging tool to evaluate carotid artery pathology and intracranial vessels. In particular, it describes the use of CT angiography (CTA) to assess vessel lumen and plaque characteristics, and CT perfusion (CTP) to provide information on brain vascular physiology and identify ischemic penumbra. The document provides details on CT protocols for CTA and CTP, and discusses how findings from these techniques can predict stroke risk and guide treatment decisions. It focuses on how CTA allows evaluation of
