DVA reduces radiation exposure during interventions

Digital variance angiography (DVA) shows promise in reducing radiation doses to patients during certain interventional radiology procedures.

July 10, 2025

Pelvic (A), femoral and popliteal (B), and cruro-pedal (C) region. The summated digital variance angiography (DVA) image significantly enhances image quality compared to the digital subtraction angiography (DSA) series I–IV (depicting 4 out of 28 (A), 48 (B) and 28 (C) DSA images) of the low dose (LD) acquisitions. Enhancements of iodinated contrast medium (ICM) by DVA depict small vessel structures in detail while the conventional DSA offers a reduced contrast-to-noise ratio (CNR) using LD acquisitions for standalone diagnostic interpretations.
