Abstract:Purpose: To assess the feasibility and diagnostic performance of carbon dioxide enhanced C-Arm Computed Tomography (CO2-CACT) of the pelvic arteries in comparison to carbon dioxide enhanced Digital Subtraction Angiography (CO2-DSA) in patients after renal transplant or with renal failure. Materials: Ten patients (9 men, 70±7 years) with an estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) o60ml/min/1.73m2 underwent CO2-DSA and CO2-CACT using a 4F catheter placed in the infrarenal aorta. CO2-DSA and CO2-CACT were acq… Show more
