neutral  Steffen Walter: Ein Gefäßabbruch ist aber keine Stenose, oder? (Stenose = Gefäßverengung/-verschluss) // Ja, richtig.
8 mins
  -> Steffen, der Abbruch erfolgt WEGEN einer kompletten, das Gefäss verschliessenden Stenose
agree  Fantutti (X): We're dealing with a complete stenosis here. The contrast fluid can't pass through. That's why the vessel, or parts of it, vanishes from the image. It appears as if the vessel were 'abgebrochen' which, of course, it isn't.
1 hr
  -> Thank you, Fantutti
neutral  Sven Petersson: Are you not mixing up cause (occlusion) and effect (interruption of flow)?
1 hr
  -> Sven, doesn't really matter, see my note for everybody
agree  MMUlr: also with fantutti
