The Imaging Service makes available diagnostic means using technology based on high quality medical images where decisions are based on the analysis of the information provided by the different diagnostic modalities performed in the institution or outside of it, such as CT reading (tomography) Conventional radiology and special studies, Conventional ultrasound in its different areas of small parts and Doppler (arterial and venous, arteriovenous fistulas, renal, portal and hepatic doppler), mammography, dental panoramic radiology and ultrasound-guided invasive procedures: biopsies percutaneous, guide for drainage, paracentesis and thoracentesis as well as support for central vascular accesses (ICU, dialysis, neonatology)., and in the management procedures of the pain clinic.

CASE
Next we will mention a rare case, with images from the use of ultrasound to the support of the tomography with the appropriate reconstruction in third dimension:
The clinical case of a 33-year-old patient with asymptomatic loop and saccular aneurysm of the left internal carotid artery, of origin acquired after high-energy mechanism (HPAF) at a distance, is presented. Carotid doppler and neck angiotc were performed.
Extracranial internal carotid artery aneurysms are an uncommon entity, representing 0.4-1% of all arterial aneurysms.1 360º loops or loops of that artery can be congenital or acquired, being asymptomatic in most patients
The internal carotid artery aneurysms are an uncommon entity but of great importance due to their potential complications, such as embolization, rupture, compression adjacent structures and others. Its also rare association with loop or loop 360º of the internal carotid artery at that level, increases the risk of strokes, and therefore its specific treatment is necessary.
Keywords: Carotid; aneurysm; internal carotid artery; carotid loop; carotid doppler, angiotc.
Radiology and Diagnostic Imaging
The images today play a fundamental role in the process of patient care, changing considerably in recent times, with the help of technology, if it was an auxiliary element in the diagnosis before, nowadays the Imaging has been transformed for modern medicine in a pillar of diagnosis, because it is increasingly important and crucial to have images to be able to make diagnoses especially in acute pathologies.
