Digital subtraction angiography (DSA) has pros and cons. Intravenous DSA may yield poor image quality and requires a high contrast dose, making some patients unsuitable for the procedure.

Area of Science:

  • Radiology
  • Medical Imaging

Background:

  • Digital subtraction angiography (DSA) is a widely used imaging technique.
  • Both intravenous and intra-arterial approaches are employed for DSA.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To critically evaluate the advantages and disadvantages of intravenous versus intra-arterial DSA.
  • To identify factors affecting image quality in intravenous DSA.

Main Methods:

  • Critical examination of claimed benefits and drawbacks of intravenous and intra-arterial DSA.
  • Discussion of parameters influencing image quality.
  • Analysis of factors degrading image quality in intravenous DSA.

Main Results:

  • Intravenous DSA is associated with factors that degrade image quality.

  • Poor image quality is often anticipated in intravenous DSA procedures.
  • Intravenous DSA necessitates a substantial contrast agent load, which can be undesirable.

    • Conclusions:

    • Many patients referred for intravenous DSA are not ideal candidates.
    • Patient suitability for intravenous DSA should be carefully assessed based on expected image quality and contrast load.
