Quantitative and qualitative evaluation of low-dose craniocervical computed tomography angiography with a lower tube voltage protocol.

CONCLUSION: In CCCTA, the 100-kVp protocol increased arterial enhancement, reduced the radiation dose, and would not cause prominent streak artifacts. This protocol should be considered for CCCTA.
