MR digital subtraction angiography (DSA) is a new diagnostic tool capable of producing dynamic images of the cerebral circulation with the injection of gadopentetate dimeglumine into a peripheral vein. Previous reports have concentrated on its potential as a noninvasive technique for the study of pial arteriovenous malformations. In this report, we present our early findings with MR DSA in the evaluation of intracranial dural arteriovenous fistulae. 相似文献

BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE: Although phase-contrast MR angiography provides some information regarding hemodynamics of cerebral arteriovenous malformations (AVMs), most conventional MR angiographic techniques have not been helpful in this respect. We attempted to determine the value of MR digital subtraction angiography (DSA) in assessing AVM hemodynamics. METHODS: We developed an MR DSA technique by combining rapid thick-section T1-weighted imaging with a bolus injection of contrast material. The temporal resolution was 0.56 to 0.61 seconds per scan. MR DSA images obtained from 14 patients with AVMs were reviewed. Anatomic depiction of each component of the AVM was rated using a four-point grading scale (excellent = 3, good = 2, fair = 1, poor = 0) to compare conventional vs MR angiograms. RESULTS: We were able to obtain serial images in which passage of contrast material was evident within the AVM, although the sequence we used allowed images to be obtained in only one projection. The average score for feeders, nidi, and drainers was 1.6, 2.4, and 2.3, respectively, with an overall average of 2.1. CONCLUSION: The spatial resolution of our technique may fall below the level needed for identification of small vascular components of an AVM. Additionally, the limited slab may restrict application of the technique to assessment of large or very small AVMs. MR DSA, however, can show the hemodynamics of AVMs and may serve as a supplement to conventional MR imaging in the diagnosis of cerebral AVMs. 相似文献

Acquire multiple longitudinal locations in the lower extremity after a single contrast injection, appropriate table translation and contrast injection are required. An approximate model based on constant bolus velocity was developed to describe the space-time course of a contrast bolus in the lower extremity. This model was verified in dynamic MR angiograms acquired in a group of patients using time-resolved 2D MR digital subtraction angiography (MRDSA). From this contrast bolus passage model, a timing algorithm for table translation and contrast injection was developed for bolus chase MRDSA, subsequently validated in bolus chase 2D MRDSA experiments. All targeted major peripheral arteries were well depicted in bolus chase 2D MRDSA using this timing algorithm and a single 15-ml contrast dose. 相似文献

The diagnosis of brain death requires: (1) the performance of all appropriate and therapeutic procedures; (2) the presence of cerebral unresponsivity, apnea, dilated pupils, absent cephalic reflexes, and electrocerebral silence; and (3) if one of these criteria cannot be tested or is met imprecisely, the performance of a confirmatory test to demonstrate the absence of cerebral blood flow. Selective cerebral arteriography has been the most widely used method of assessing cerebral blood flow. Digital intravenous angiography was used as a means of evaluating cerebral blood flow, and it was found to be a useful confirmatory test in the diagnosis of brain death. 相似文献

Purpose:
To increase the in‐plane spatial resolution and image update rates of 2D magnetic resonance (MR) digital subtraction angiography (DSA) pulse sequences to 0.57 × 0.57 mm and 6 frames/sec, respectively, for intracranial vascular disease applications by developing a radial FLASH protocol and to characterize a new artifact, not previously described in the literature, which arises in the presence of such pulse sequences.Materials and Methods:
The pulse sequence was optimized and artifacts were characterized using simulation and phantom studies. With Institutional Review Board (IRB) approval, the pulse sequence was used to acquire time‐resolved images from healthy human volunteers and patients with x‐ray DSA‐confirmed intracranial vascular disease.Results:
Artifacts were shown to derive from inhomogeneous spoiling due to the nature of radial waveforms. Gradient spoiling strategies were proposed to eliminate the observed artifact by balancing gradient moments across TR intervals. The resulting radial 2D MR DSA sequence (2.6 sec temporal footprint, 6 frames/sec with sliding window factor 16, 0.57 × 0.57 mm in‐plane) demonstrated small vessel detail and corroborated x‐ray DSA findings in intracranial vascular imaging studies.Conclusion:
Appropriate gradient spoiling in radial 2D MR DSA pulse sequences improves intracranial vascular depiction by eliminating circular banding artifacts. The proposed pulse sequence may provide a useful addition to clinically applied 2D MR DSA scans. J. Magn. Reson. Imaging 2012;36:249–258. © 2012 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. 相似文献12.

Purpose:
To validate cardiovascular magnetic resonance (CMR) arterial wall volume measurement using whole arterial specimens ex vivo.Materials and Methods:
Twenty cadaveric carotid arteries (from 10 patients) were fixed in formaldehyde and imaged with a clinical T1‐weighted 2D CMR sequence and, for imaging validation, with a high‐resolution 3D sequence. Histological validation was performed by sectioning the arteries and microscopically determining area and volume.Results:
Comparison between the clinical 2D CMR sequence and the 3D high‐resolution validation sequence showed equivalent luminal volumes (889 vs. 880 mm3; P = 0.54; R2 = 0.99), and slightly higher 2D CMR arterial wall volumes (982 vs. 916 mm3; +7%; P < 0.01; R2 = 0.96) and adventitial volumes (1901 vs. 1826 mm3; +4%; P < 0.01; R2 = 0.99). Comparison between 2D CMR and microscopy, performed over a similar longitudinal extent of vessel, showed slightly higher 2D CMR volumes for the lumen (354 vs. 308 mm3; +14%; P < 0.01; R2 = 0.97), arterial wall (388 vs. 351 mm3; +10%; P < 0.01; R2 = 0.97) and total volumes (750 vs. 665 mm3; +12%; P < 0.01; R2 = 0.95).Conclusion:
The accuracy of the clinical 2D CMR vessel wall sequence for measuring carotid lumen, adventitial, and wall volumes is good against ex vivo measurements, with minor overestimation. This study validates carotid arterial wall quantification by CMR for atherosclerosis research. J. Magn. Reson. Imaging 2010;31:935–941. ©2010 Wiley‐Liss, Inc. 相似文献14.

Differentiation is often difficult between vascular graft occlusion and progression of underlying disease in patients after
vascular surgery. We have studied 57 patients after surgery for traumatic and atherosclerotic arterial occlusion and other
vascular anomalies using a commercial digital subtraction angiography (DSA) unit; no complications occurred. Indications for
examination included pain, diminished pulse, and failure of catheter angiography. Graft patency was established if proximal
and distal anastomoses were visualized; occlusion was diagnosed if no graft was imaged or vascular stump found—noted in 31
grafts. Our diagnosis was proved surgically in 24 patients (two refused operation); three others were confirmed angiographically
and one by Doppler ultrasonic examination. In our experience DSA is a safe, specific means of following postoperative grafts
and diagnosing their occlusion.

A new NMR method for producing angiograms with strong suppression of the static spin signal and without the need for subtraction is described and demonstrated. A velocity-selective pulse sequence was implemented whereby the magnetization of all stationary spins is driven to the -z axis and is not detected, while maximizing the signal intensity of the moving spins. A theory of the method is presented and gives good agreement with experimental results obtained on a flow phantom. It is shown theoretically and experimentally that high-quality velocity-independent angiograms of the head and neck can be obtained with strong suppression of static spin signal when TR approximately T1. The method can be extended to produce three-dimensional angiograms. 相似文献

PURPOSE: The aim of this study was to analyse the costs pertaining to the radiology department of magnetic resonance angiography (MRA) and intra-arterial digital subtraction angiography (DSA) in the evaluation of arterial disease of the lower limbs. MATERIALS AND METHODS: The differential cost of the two procedures, i.e. the sum of equipment costs (amortisation and service contract), variable costs (supplies and related services) and personnel costs (radiologist, radiographer and nurse) was determined. The common cost (auxiliary personnel and indirect internal costs) was also calculated. Finally, the full cost of the two procedures was obtained (sum of differential and common costs). RESULTS: The differential cost of MRA was 186.14 euro (equipment costs: 50.80 euro, variable costs: 75.04 euro, personnel costs: 60.30 euro) while the differential cost of intra-arterial DSA was 238.18 euro (equipment costs: 57.60 euro, variable costs: 90.13 euro, staff costs: 90.45 euro). The estimated common cost was 5.62 euro. Therefore, the full cost of MRA was 191.76 euro and the full cost of intra-arterial DSA was 243.80 euro (27.1% higher). DISCUSSION AND CONCLUSIONS: Intra-arterial DSA costs more than MRA, mainly because of the higher costs of supplies used during the procedure and higher personnel costs (as a result of the longer duration of intra-arterial DSA). It should be noted that our evaluation considers costs pertaining to the radiology department only. It is evident that an economic analysis considering hospital costs as well would result in much higher costs for DSA if post-procedure hospitalisation is required. Our results cannot be simply exported to other radiology departments since they refer to the technology and organisation adopted in our department. However, our cost analysis model can be easily applied to other environments. MRA provides good diagnostic accuracy in the evaluation of arteries of the lower extremities, and its biological cost is far lower than that of intra-arterial DSA (MRA is noninvasive, it does not use ionising radiation, and the contrast medium is safe). Its lower cost is another argument in favour of the use of MRA instead of intra-arterial DSA in the evaluation of lower-extremity arterial disease. 相似文献

Digital subtraction angiography (DSA), a new computer-assisted radiographic procedure, has recently been applied to the evaluation
of the kidney and in the screening of patients with renal vascular hypertension. The efficacy of the method in the evaluation
of the anatomy of proximal renal arteries is in the 80–90% range; however, DSA is less effective in the evaluation of renal
mass lesion. In the present state of DSA development, the method has a place in screening for renal artery stenosis (RAS).
Further development, particularly improvement in spatial resolution, will be necessary before this procedure can substitute
for renal angiography, in the evaluation of renal masses or in some cases of RAS. 相似文献
