Aberrant origin of the occipital artery from the internal carotid artery: utility of the occipital tap maneuver

We have described a case of a suspected transient ischemic attack with a double lumen potentially resembling a dissection of the internal carotid artery on Doppler ultrasound. The identification of an arterial branch from the internal carotid artery and flowing near it using magnetic resonance imagi...
