CONTRAST-ENHANCED THREE-DIMENSIONAL MR ANGIOGRAPHY IN THE ASSESMENT OF RENAL ARTERY STENOSIS AND CORRELATION W!TH COLOR DOPPLER SONOGRAPHY

Abstract

The purpose of this study was to evaluate the diagnostic role of three-dimensional magnetic resonance angiography in the detection of renal artery stenosis. Additionally, the results of magnetic resonance angiography were correlated with color Doppler sonographic findings. 25 patients with clinical suspicion of renovascular hypertension were examined with breath-hold, contrast-enhanced, three-dimensional magnetic resonance angiography and color Doppler sonography. İn 5 patients, who had renal artery stenosis findings in magnetic resonance angiography and color Doppler sonography, digital subtraction angiography was performed. Breath-hold, contrast-enhanced, three dimensional magnetic resonance angiography, especially using with otomated injector, is a higly sensitive, noninvasive screening method for assesment of renovascular hypertension. İn 36% of ali patients, catheter angiographic examination was pmposed, because this patients had renal artery stenosis findings in magnetic resonance angiography and color Doppier sonography. Hovvever, in the rest of the patients (64%), the renal artery and branches were normal in magnetic resonance angiography and color Doppier sonography. Zu This proup, catheter angicgraphy was not performed and these patients were taken into follow-up under medical treatment.
