The Role of Vascular Imaging to Advance Clinical Care and Research in Large-Vessel Vasculitis

The two main forms of large-vessel vasculitis (LVV) are giant cell arteritis (GCA) and Takayasu's arteritis (TAK). Vascular imaging can characterize disease activity and disease extent in LVV. This review critically analyzes the clinical utility of vascular imaging in LVV and highlights how imaging may be incorporated into the management and study of these conditions.There are multiple imaging modalities available to assess LVV including...
