Preoperative evaluation of carotid artery stenosis: comparison of contrast-enhanced MR angiography and duplex sonography with digital subtraction angiography.
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE Contrast-enhanced MR angiography and extracranial color-coded duplex sonography are noninvasive, preoperative imaging modalities for evaluation of carotid artery stenosis. Innovative techniques and improvements in image quality require frequent reassessment of accuracy, reliability, and diagnostic value compared with those of digital subtraction angiography (DSA). We eval...
متن کاملContrast-Enhanced MR Angiography
Magnetic resonance angiography (MRA) is increasingly used to evaluate arterial and venous diseases. Although the resolution of MRA is not as high as that of conventional angiography, it is sufficient to evaluate pathologic conditions in the larger vascular structures of most parts of the body. It is especially useful in patients who cannot tolerate the risks of iodinated contrast agents or arte...
متن کاملNoninvasive detection of vertebral artery stenosis: a comparison of contrast-enhanced MR angiography, CT angiography, and ultrasound.
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE Vertebral stenosis is associated with a high risk of recurrent stroke, but noninvasive imaging techniques to identify it have lacked sensitivity. Contrast-enhanced MR angiography and CT angiography have been recently developed and appear to have better sensitivity. However, no prospective studies have compared both of these techniques with ultrasound against the gold stan...
متن کاملNon-contrast-enhanced Whole-body MR angiography
INTRODUCTION Vascular diseases typically affect the entire arterial systems, from the intracranial down to the pedal vessels. However, it is not easy to evaluate the whole-body vascular systems noninvasively within a reasonable time. Up until now, many non-contrast-enhanced MR angiography (MRA) methods have been developed based on variable principles or MR phenomena; then select the appropriate...
متن کاملNon-contrast enhanced MR angiography: physical principles.
Noncontrast-enhanced magnetic resonance angiography (NCE-MRA) methods have been demonstrated in anatomies throughout the body. Previously established NCE-MRA techniques suffered from long scan times or low sensitivity. Advances in hardware and software have made NCE-MRA scan times clinically feasible. Recent concerns over the safety of gadolinium-based contrast material combined with the expens...
