Compared to digital substraction angiography, the sensitivity of CTA was greater than 85% in all studies and the median sensitivity was 97%. Pooled sensitivity was 95% (95% confidence interval, CI: 91 to 97). Specificity was greater than 90% for severe stenosis and occlusion. The median specificity was 97%. The pooled specificity was 98% (95% CI: 96 to 99).
