In CSSS, subclavian angiography is the standard diagnostic test. However, other diagnostic techniques may be valuable to better clarify this challenging diagnosis. In the herein small series, the usefulness of a multimodality imaging approach including Doppler ultrasound, myocardial perfusion scintigraphy, and CT is well demonstrated. Furthermore, this study endorses the safety and utility of endovascular treatment in different clinical scenarios, including asymptomatic patients.
