متن کاملTRICKS Magnetic Resonance Angiography at 3-Tesla for Assessing Whole Lower Extremity Vascular Tree in Patients with High-Grade Critical Limb Ischemia: DSA and TASC II Guidelines Correlations
The entire vascular tree of 58 lower extremities with high-grade critical limb ischemia (CLI) was assessed with three-station time resolved imaging of contrast kinetics (TRICKS) magnetic resonance angiography (T-MRA) and correlated with digital subtraction angiography (DSA) examinations and Trans-Atlantic Inter-Society Consensus II (TASC II) guidelines. Kappa (κ) statistics were utilized to eva...
متن کاملRefocused Turbo Spin Echo for Noncontrast MRA
Introduction There is increasing interest in non-contrast MRA methods because of the risk of NSF in patients with kidney disease [1]. RARE-type sequences are capable of generating contrast between blood and surrounding tissue based on T2 differences, but conventional RARE sequences have a non-zero first moment at the RF pulses and at odd echoes, and are therefore susceptible to flow-related art...
متن کاملQuiescent Interval Single Shot MR Angiography
Introduction Given the frequency of renal functional impairment in patients with peripheral vascular disease (PVD) and concerns about nephrogenic systemic fibrosis, there is growing interest in unenhanced MRA (1,2). While promising, existing unenhanced MRA methods suffer from limitations that preclude robust clinical application for PVD. An ideal unenhanced method should be fast, easy to use, a...
متن کاملFunctional Balance and Motor Impairment Correlations with Gait Parameters during Timed Up and Go Test across Three Attentional Loading Conditions in Stroke Survivors
The aim of this study was to determine whether stroke survivor's gait performance during dual-task Timed Up and Go (TUG) test is correlated with the level of functional balance and motor impairment. Thirty stroke survivors (22 men, 8 women) were recruited for this study. The level of functional balance (Berg Balance Scale) and motor impairment (Fugl-Meyer assessment lower extremity) were assess...
