Introduction: MR angiography and MSCT angiography represent two key methods for noninvasive visualization of the brain vasculature, each with its own advantages and limitations. These tests are of fundamental importance for the timely diagnosis and treatment of aneurysms, tumors, arterio-venous malformations, strokes and other pathological conditions of the brain. Aim: This paper aims to compare their technical aspects, diagnostic accuracy and clinical applicability in order to identify the optimal indications for the use of each method. Discussion: With the basis of numerous scientific studies, it is emphasized that MRA and MSCTA examinations enable a detailed representation of blood vessels and other anatomical structures of the brain, using different reconstruction techniques such as multiplanar reconstruction (MPR), maximum intensity projection (MIP) and volume rendering. The importance of these methods in the diagnosis and treatment planning of intracranial aneurysms and head and neck cancers is particularly emphasized. Conclusion: MRA stands out for its safety (because it does not use ionizing radiation) and high contrast resolution, but it is time-consuming and more sensitive to movement. MSCTA is a faster method with high spatial resolution, useful in emergency situations, but carries the risk of radiation and the need for contrast agents. The choice between them should be based on clinical needs and the patient's condition. Both fields continue to evolve to improve diagnostic capabilities and reduce patient risks.
