Conclusion
While angiography plays a major role as a baseline assessment of the entire vascular tree,
duplex ultrasound can aids TA disease diagnostic.
Ultrasonography (US) has the advantages of avoiding the high radiation dosage of angiography,
and is cheaper and more widely available,
particularly relevant in countries with less resources where TA is more common.
