Abstract:
Objective To assess the role and its tecnhique superiority of 64-slice spiral CT angiography(CTA) in lower limb arterial diseases.Methods MSCT studies in 33 cases suspected diseases of lower limb arteries was performed,the helical scans covered the extent of renal artery to the artery of the lower extremity.3D reconstruction of vessel was done in Wizard workstation.The manifestations of MSCTA were compared with that of conventional angiography . Results Of the 693 segments of arteria , 683 were assessable on both DSA and CTA.Using the DSA images as the standard reference,the sensitivity,specificity and accuracy of CTA were 97.6%(95% CI,94.9%~100.7%),98.9%(95% CI,98.0%~99.8%),98.7%(95% CI,97.9%~99.5%)in detecting the segments occluded . With the regard the detection of segments that had more than moderate stenosis , the sensitivity , specificity and accuracy of MIP were 98.9% ( 95% CI , 97.4%~100.4%),99.4%( 95% CI, 98.7%~100.1%) and 99.3%(95% CI, 92.4%~99.9%).Conclusion In assessment of diseases of lower limb arteries with 64-slice spiral CT angiography is equal to DSA basically, it is a highly accurate and non-invasive angiography in diagnosing arterial diseases of the lower extremities.
