M2 middle cerebral arterial (MCA) occlusions present a greater radiological challenge when compared to more proximal occlusions and additional signs aiding detection could be helpful. We routinely image patients with a dual‐phase CT angiography (CTA) protocol, encompassing a bolus‐tracked arterial/early and then delayed‐phase (40‐s post contrast injection) acquisition. We screened a 12‐month period of our local thrombectomy database as a preliminary investigation into additional signs that can be gleaned to aid M2 occlusion diagnosis when imaged using this technique.
