Abstract
The purpose of this article is to describe two cases in which fibromuscular dysplasia of the internal carotid artery was diagnosed with CT angiography. CT angiography can depict the characteristic findings of fibromuscular dysplasia. If patients with cerebrovascular symptoms undergo screening with CT angiography of the supraaortic vessels, more cases of fibromuscular dysplasia will be recognized as a cause of neurologic symptoms.
