Fig. 1 2D DSA.
A small saccular shaped aneurysm was originated from the left radial artery (Arrow) . Blood supply to the palmer artery arches was maintained only by the radial artery.
 
 
 
Fig. 2 3D stereoview of the radial artery aneurysm.
A pair of 3D images were reconstructed in volume rending mode.
 
 
 
Fig. 3 Virtual endoscopy of radial artery aneurysm.
Left: volume rendering mode with three dimensional measurement of radial artery diameters adjacent to the aneurysm. Right: A wide oval-shaped opening of the radial artery was presented in the virtual endoscopic mode.
