We investigated intravenous digital angiography using computer processed fluoroscopic images. Computer processed fluoroscopy (CPF) was compared to conventional digital subtraction angiography (DSA) in 39 patients referred for renal vessel evaluation. For assessment of CPF the anterior-posterior images were compared with the corresponding digital subtraction angiograms. 79% percent of DSA and 71% of CPF studies were diagnostic. Peripheral injection of contrast medium caused deterioration of CPF images. Skin dose measurements were obtained in 24 patients. The median dose for DSA was 8.2 rad, compared to 1.1 rad for CPF. It is concluded that sophisticated algorithms should be investigated for digital angiography, so that high image quality can be achieved with a reduced radiation exposure.
