Intravenous digital subtraction angiography (DSA) was performed in 119 patients with lower extremity ischemia using a 14" amplifier. Four injections of contrast medium were usually necessary for a complete evaluation of this vascular region. Images of good quality were obtained in most cases; movement artifacts and a faint opacification accounted for any poor results, which occurred mainly under the knee. The technique of pixel shifting turned out to be very useful to remove movement artifacts. The "measuring field" allowed us to minimize the problem of the inhomo geneous saturation of the amplifier. In 8% of the cases an intra-arterial DSA has been performed after an unsatisfactory intravenous examination. Conventional angiography appears to be no longer necessary.
