A rare case of positional changes of carotid artery depicted within a single MR study and a wandering carotid artery depicted on a serial MR studies

The retropharyngeal carotid artery (RCA) is a relatively rare anatomical malposition, and positional changes in the RCA is also extremely rare. In addition, there are some reports of ''wandering carotid artery'' which means that the carotid artery reciprocate positional changes (...
