What are the screening items for the superficial temporal artery of hyperinflation?

Hyperinflation of the superficial temporal artery, also known as temporal arteritis. Superficial temporal arteritis is a painful nodule or nodule-like artery with a reddened surface that can sometimes be palpated locally during painful giant cell arteritis. Superficial temporal artery headache is a tense pain or superficial burning pain in one or both temporal, forehead or occipital areas. So, what are the examination items of superficial temporal artery of violent distension? 1.X-ray examination, angiography can find segmental stenosis or occlusion of the relevant branches of the internal and external carotid arteries and the relevant branches of the aorta. 2.Some patients may have EEG abnormalities. 3. Histopathologically, the disease is a kind of total arteritis, and the most important pathological features are: (1) there is a specific site of predilection. (2) The arterial involvement is limited and segmental in distribution, forming a jump phenomenon. (3) Inflammatory cell infiltration vasculitis in the whole layer of the diseased vessel, especially in the intima, which is characterized by infiltration of lymphocytes, plasma cells, and mononuclear macrophages, and degeneration of the outer membrane of the muscular layer, most of which is destroyed. ④ The elastic layer of the vessel wall was formed by giant cells with hairy glass-like degeneration and collapse of elastic fibers, and the giant cells contained degenerated and sometimes calcified elastic fibers. Proliferation of the middle layer fibers is also a characteristic pathological change of this disease. ⑤ Endothelial hyperplasia, wall thickening, luminal narrowing or occlusion and thrombosis of the lesioned vessels are seen, with ischemic or infarctive histological changes in the peripheral tissues associated with the damaged vessels, accompanied by round cell infiltration of the vascular trophoblast, and the lesions may occur in a patchy isolated disease along the course of the artery.
