90-kVp carotid and intracranial CTA with Admire provides increased quantitative and similarly good qualitative image quality, while reducing radiation exposure substantially compared to M_0.6. Diagnostic performance for arterial stenosis detection and quantification remained excellent. Advances in knowledge: 90-kVp carotid and intracranial CTA with an advanced iterative reconstruction algorithm results in excellent image quality and reduction of radiation exposure without limiting diagnostic performance.
