1/Time to go with the flow! Hoping no one notices you don’t know the anatomy of internal carotid (ICA)? Do you say “carotid siphon” & hope no one asks for more detail? Here’s a thread to help you siphon off some information about ICA anatomy!

My attending once said, “If you don’t want to miss something, you have to know where look for it!” Intracranial aneurysms may occur at many locations, but overwhelming at the ACOM & PCOMM. Look hard at these regions! Remember, you miss 100% of aneurysms you don't look for!
