Three patients with moyamoya disease who had undergone bypass surgery at which bilateral encephaloduro-arterio-synangiosis (EDAS) anastomoses were created were studied with three-dimensional spiral CT angiography (3D-CTA). In one patient, magnetic resonance angiography (MRA) clearly visualized the b...
