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. This...
