RESUMEN

OBJECTIVE: The purpose of this study was to compare gadobenate dimeglumine-enhanced MR angiography and unenhanced time-of-flight MR angiography for the detection of significant peripheral arterial occlusive disease using digital subtraction angiography as our reference standard. SUBJECTS AND METHODS: Two hundred seventy-two patients underwent MR angiography and digital subtraction angiography of the iliofemoral arteries. MR angiography was performed before (2D time-of-flight acquisitions) and after (spoiled gradient-echo acquisitions) the administration of 0.1 mmol/kg of gadobenate dimeglumine at 1-2 mL/s. Contrast-enhanced MR angiography and digital subtraction angiography of the calf arteries were performed in 241 of 272 participants. Images were evaluated on-site and by four blinded reviewers (three for MR angiography, one for digital subtraction angiography). Comparative diagnostic performance for the detection of significant (> or = 51% vessel lumen narrowing) disease was evaluated using the McNemar test and generalized estimating equations. Interobserver agreement was assessed with generalized kappa statistics. The chi-square test was used to compare technical failure rates. RESULTS: Digital subtraction angiography confirmed significant disease (597 stenoses, 386 occlusions) in 983 iliofemoral segments. The sensitivity (54-80.9%), specificity (89.7-95.3%), and accuracy (85-87.5%) of contrast-enhanced MR angiography for the detection of significant iliofemoral disease were significantly (p < 0.001, all reviewers) better than those of time-of-flight MR angiography (33.2-62.8%, 74.3-88.9%, and 68-77.3%, respectively). Similar diagnostic performance was obtained for the calf arteries. The technical failure rate with contrast-enhanced MR angiography (2.5-3.4%) was similar to that of digital subtraction angiography (1.4%) and significantly (p < 0.001) lower than that of time-of-flight MR angiography (6.2-18.0%). Significantly better reproducibility (p < 0.001) was obtained with contrast-enhanced MR angiography (82% vs 65.2% agreement; kappa = 0.66 vs 0.45). CONCLUSION: Improved diagnostic performance and reproducibility are achievable with gadobenate dimeglumine-enhanced MR angiography in patients with peripheral arterial occlusive disease.
