Ultra-low-dose intra-arterial contrast injection for iliofemoral computed tomographic angiography.
OBJECTIVES This study sought to evaluate the feasibility of using ultra-low-dose intra-arterial contrast injection for iliofemoral computed tomographic (CT) angiography to follow diagnostic cardiac catheterization. BACKGROUND Cardiovascular interventions such as percutaneous aortic valve replacement require transfemoral delivery of large-bore intra-arterial catheters; therefore, pre-procedura...
متن کاملLow-dose computed tomographic screening for lung cancer.
Low-dose computed tomographic (LDCT) screening is now moving from clinical trials to clinical practice, following the report from the National Lung Screening Trial that LDCT screening for lung cancer can reduce the number of deaths from lung cancer by 20% in current and former smokers, ages 55 to 74 years, with a 30 pack-year smoking history. This article reviews the current evidence for screen...
متن کاملCan multi-detector computed tomographic angiography replace conventional angiography prior to lower extremity arterial reconstruction?
UNLABELLED Computed tomographic (CT) angiography has become a valuable diagnostic technique prior to lower extremity arterial reconstruction. The purpose of this study is to evaluate its accuracy, compared to conventional angiography for planning lower limb revascularization procedures. PATIENTS AND METHODS A prospective study was performed on all patients who underwent lower extremity arteri...
متن کاملeffects of contrast media selection upon heart rate and heat sensation during coronary computed tomographic angiography
conclusions compared to iohexol and iopamidol, iodixanol use was associated with a lower patient perception of heat and lower hr while maintaining similar contrast-to-noise and signal-to-noise ratios. results baseline hr was similar across the patients assigned to iohexol, iopamidol, and iodixanol (65.3 ± 9.7, 66.9 ± 10.9, and 65.3 ± 13.3, respectively; p = ns). compared to iohexol and iopamido...
متن کاملCollateral Status on Baseline Computed Tomographic Angiography and Intra-Arterial Treatment Effect in Patients With Proximal Anterior Circulation Stroke.
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE Recent randomized trials have proven the benefit of intra-arterial treatment (IAT) with retrievable stents in acute ischemic stroke. Patients with poor or absent collaterals (preexistent anastomoses to maintain blood flow in case of a primary vessel occlusion) may gain less clinical benefit from IAT. In this post hoc analysis, we aimed to assess whether the effect of IAT ...
