Abstracts: Introduction: studying the percentage of display and dimensions of the middle cerebral artery and some related arteries on on 256 MSCT data. Methods: A cross-sectional study, with sample size of 261. Results: The percentage of display of middle cerebral artery is 100%; the posterior artery is 76.4; Internal Carotid Artery is 100%. The average diameter, average length are (mm) M1T respectively: 3.25 ± 0.43 and 19.98 ± 6.10; M1 P: 3.26 ± 0.46 and 19.68 ± 6.28; M2T left 2.10 ± 0.48 and 22.85 ± 13.18; M2T right 2.09 ± 0.49 and 23.42 ± 11.89; M2D left 2.48 ± 0.49 and 31.73-16.36; M2D right 2.55 ± 0.49 and 29.11 ± 15.31. PCoA T 1.29 ± 0.63 and 11.87 ± 4.87; PCoA P 1.26 ± 0.66 and 14.02 ± 9.13; Conclusions: The size of the middle cerebral artery and some related arteries were accurately evaluated in the study, the image of vascular anatomy was display clearly.
