Popis: This study was carried out to evaluate time-of-flight RA in renal artery stenosis (RAS) in selected hypertensive patients (n = 41). In i.a. DSA studies, 10 unilateral, 8 bilateral RAS, and 4 unilateral RA occlusions were proven. MRA was done in coronal and axial 2D technique (FLASH), and in 3D technique (FISP) using GE-pulse sequences. DSA results were correlated with both 2D-individual slices, 2D- and 3D-MIP angiograms. Highest sensitivity and specificity was found for the axial 2D individual slice analysis (88%, 85% resp.), followed by the 3D-MIP MRA (78%, 80% resp.), and axial 2D-MIP MRA (73%, 79% resp.). MRA of renal arteries used in this study shows to be not adequate to DSA results due to many drawbacks. All MRA techniques, in particular the 3D-technique, tend to overestimate RAS occasionally pretending occlusions.
