Selective spinal arteriogrpahy is a neuroradiologic technique not yet generally known. For the experienced examiner it is not more dangerous than cerebral catheter-angiography. It is most important for the diagnosis of spinal arteriovenous malformations. Here it is an essential examination even when myelography has already shown clear findings. In certain cases in can be used for therapy (artificial embolisation). In other spinal processes further experience will be needed.
