We assessed the diagnostic performance of whole-body 3D contrast-enhanced MR angiography in comparison with digital subtraction angiography (DSA) of the lower extremities in patients with peripheral arterial occlusive disease. SUBJECTS AND METHODS. Fifty-one patients with clinically documented peripheral arterial occlusive disease referred for DSA of the lower extremity arterial system underwent whole-body MR angiography on a 1.5-T MR scanner. Paramagnetic gadobutrol was administered and five contiguous stations were acquired with 3D T1-weighted gradient-echo sequences in a total scanning time of 72 sec. DSA was available as a reference standard for the peripheral vasculature in all patients. Separate blinded data analyses were performed by two radiologists. Additional vascular disease detected by whole-body MR angiography was subsequently assessed on sonography, dedicated MR angiography, or both.
