• Extending the scan range for coronary or craniocervical CTA has the potential to reveal lesions in non-targeted regions. • One-stop combined CTA as enabled on high-speed wide-detector CT delivers high-quality images at a lower cost of contrast medium and operational time than two consecutive CTA scans. • Patients with suspected but unconfirmed CAD or CCAD may benefit from the one-stop combined CTA in the first examination.
