Craniocervical artery dissection is a potentially disabling yet probably underrecognized condition that often occurs in young and middleaged adults. Accurate and prompt diagnosis of this condition is crucial because timely and appropriate therapy can significantly reduce the risk of stroke and long- term sequelae. Because of the great diversity in the clinical features of craniocervical artery dissection, imaging plays a primary role in its diagnosis. The increased diagnosis of this disorder in the past two decades can be attributed to an increased awareness of the clinical manifestations of internal carotid artery and vertebral artery dissection and to use of noninvasive diagnostic imaging techniques. To achieve an accurate diagnosis of craniocervical artery dissection, it is important to be familiar with its pathologic features (intimal tear, intramural hematoma, and dissecting aneurysm); the spectrum of imaging findings at color duplex ultrasonography, computed tomographic angiography, magnetic resonance (MR) imaging with MR angiography, and conventional angiography; and potential pitfalls in image interpretation.
