Aggressive screening of patients with blunt head and neck trauma identified an incidence of BCVI in 1.03% of blunt admissions. Early identification, which led to early treatment, significantly reduced stroke rates in patients with VAI, but provided no outcome improvement with CAI. More encompassing screening may be required to improve outcomes for patients with CAI. However, less-invasive diagnostic techniques (CTA and MRA) are inadequate for screening. Technological advances are necessary before abandonment of conventional angiography, which remains the standard for diagnosis.
