Tomographic DSA using temporal filtration: initial neurovascular application.
نویسندگان
چکیده
A preliminary study showed that encouraging laboratory results reported previously using tomographic digital subtraction angiography (DSA) can be transferred to clinical application for neurovascular imaging. Tomography may show cervical carotid disease more clearly than standard DSA images, and it eliminates the interference caused by overlapping vessels. Production of multiple tomographic image planes from a single set of projection data, tomosynthesis, must be incorporated into this imaging system before tomographic DSA becomes clinically useful. This is a practical reality with the present equipment; clinical evaluation of this new capability is underway.

Role of Multislice Computerized Tomographic Angiography after Clip Placement in Aneurysm Patients Based on Comparison with Three Dimensional Digital Subtraction Angiography
Postoperative angiography for aneurysm surgery is essential in identifying those aneurysms that have been inadequately clipped, allowing for additional corrective surgery. The current standard of reference for the postoperative evaluation of clipped aneurysms is digital subtraction angiography (DSA). However, DSA is an invasive method requiring arterial puncture and intraarterial catheter manip...

BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE The yield of DSA in patients with SAH and negative initial noninvasive neurovascular examinations (CTA or MRA) is not well-understood. This study aimed to determine the yield of DSA for the detection of causative vascular lesions in this clinical scenario. MATERIALS AND METHODS We examined the yield of DSA for the detection of causative vascular lesions in a cohort of p...
متن کاملTomographic digital subtraction angiography for lung perfusion estimation in rodents.
In vivo measurements of perfusion present a challenge to existing small animal imaging techniques such as magnetic resonance microscopy, micro computed tomography, micro positron emission tomography, and microSPECT, due to combined requirements for high spatial and temporal resolution. We demonstrate the use of tomographic digital subtraction angiography (TDSA) for estimation of perfusion in sm...

OBJECTIVES To evaluate the accuracy of routinely available non-invasive tests (spiral computed tomographic angiography (CTA), time of flight magnetic resonance angiography (MRA), and colour Doppler ultrasound (DUS)), individually and together, compared with intra-arterial digital subtraction angiography (DSA) in patients with symptomatic tight carotid stenosis; and to assess the effect of subst...

Endarterectomy To the Editor: A variety of neurovascular imaging techniques have been developed to avoid the infrequent but often serious risks of digital subtraction angiography, (DSA)1 This still remains the “gold standard,” although there is increasing reliance on duplex ultrasound as the sole screening method for evaluating arterial stenosis prior to carotid endarterectomy (CEA). Other form...
