Digital variance angiography allows about 70% decrease of DSA-related radiation exposure in lower limb X-ray angiography
Abstract Our aim was to investigate whether the previously observed higher contrast-to-noise ratio (CNR) and better image quality of Digital Variance Angiography (DVA) - compared to Digital Subtraction Angiography (DSA) - can be used to reduce radiation exposure in lower limb X-ray angiography.

In all patients, both normal (1.2 µGy/frame; 100%) and low-dose (0.36 µGy/frame; 30%) protocols were used for the acquisition of images in three anatomical regions (abdominal, femoral, crural).

DVA produced two- to three-fold CNR and significantly higher visual score than DSA.
