Abstract:
Objective To study the diagnostic value of 3T three-dimensional contrast-enhanced MR angiography (3D CE-MRA) of arteriosclerosis occlusive disease of lower extremities using a low dose of gadolinium.Methods 26 patients with arteriosclerosis occlusive disease of lower extremities were prospectively enrolled.DSA and 3D CE-MRA with a low dose of gadolinium were per-formed and directly compared by radiologists.Sensitivity,specificity,accuracy,positive and negative predictive values,Kappa val-ue of 3D CE-MRA were determined for significant stenoses and vessel occlusions (5 1%-100%).Results The diagnosis coincidence rate of 3D CE-MRA was 87.21%,over-and underestimation rates were 8.91% and 3.88%,respectively.Sensitivity,specificity, accuracy,positive and negative predictive values,Kappa value of 3D CE-MRA in the characterization of significant stenoses and oc-clusions were 91.67%,94.29%,93.22%,91.67%,94.29%,0.860,respectively,in aortoiliac arteries,and 90.63%,94.23%, 92.86%,90.63%,94.23%,0.849,respectively,in femoropopliteal arteries and 93.67%,75%,87.83%,89.1 6%,84.38%, 0.718,respectively,in infrapopliteal arteies.The overall sensitivity,specificity,accuracy,positive and negative predictive values, Kappa value in the lower extremity were 92.59%,88.62%,90.70%,89.93%,84.50% and 0.813.Conclusion 3T 3D CE-MRA with a low dose of gadolinium is an accurate method used to depict significant stenoses and occlusions comparable with that of DSA in lower extremity artery disease.
