    Notes: Abstract. The purpose of this review is to describe recent advances in non-invasive vascular imaging techniques and to discuss their current clinical applications for imaging of peripheral vessels. Principles for applying ultrasound, CT angiography (CTA), and magnetic resonance angiography (MRA) for non-invasive imaging of peripheral arteries and veins are presented. Clinical applications are reviewed for different vascular diseases, therapy planning, and follow-up studies. Conventional Doppler and color duplex sonography are the most cost-effective procedures to detect or rule out peripheral arterial occlusive disease (PAOD) and to provide specific recommendations for therapy. In the near future, contrast-enhanced MRA (CE MRA) with additional axial two-dimensional time-of-flight studies to search for non-anatomic runoff will replace diagnostic intra-arterial digital subtraction angiography (DSA) for planning of reconstructive surgery with acquisition slabs displaying projections similar to intra-arterial DSA. Color duplex sonography should also be the first non-invasive technique applied for the detection of peripheral aneurysms. Preoperative or preinterventional therapy planning of aneurysms may be performed by CTA or CE MRA. Compression ultrasound is the imaging procedure of choice in deep venous thrombosis (DVT). In the preoperative assessment of venous incompetence, color duplex sonography is the imaging technique which is sufficient in most cases.

    Description / Table of Contents: Summary The purpose of this work is to describe our initial clinical experience (in 66 patients) with Resovist and Eovist, two new liver-specific MR contrast agents. We focus our report on safety aspects, dose finding, and optimization of technical parameters. Both contrast agents were well tolerated and improved the detectability of focal liver lesions. With Resovist, postcontrast MRI may be started as early as 10 min following injection. The dose of 8 μmol Fe/kg bodyweight was sufficient to achieve diagnostic tumor-liver contrast levels. Since Eovist can also be administered as a bolus, dynamic enhance- ment patterns may be studied for tumor characterization as well. Breath-hold T 1-weighted FLASH images were superior to other T 1-weighted techniques with and without fat saturation.
    Notes: Zusammenfassung In der vorliegenden Arbeit werden erste klinische Ergebnisse (66 Patienten) der für die Leberbildgebung entwickelten Kontrastmittel Resovist® und Eovist® vorgestellt. Es wurden Sicherheitsaspekte, Dosierungsfragen und die optimale Untersuchungstechnik am Beispiel fokaler Leberläsionen untersucht. Beide „leberspezifischen“ Kontrastmittel zeigten bei guter Verträglichkeit eine Verbesserung des Nachweises fokaler Leberläsionen. Die Untersuchung mit Resovist® kann bereits 10 min nach der Kontrastmittelinjektion erfolgen. Mit einer Dosis von 8 μmol Fe/kg Körpergewicht konnte eine ausreichender Tumor-Leber-Kontrast erzielt werden. Da Eovist® zusätzlich im Bolus injiziert werden kann, ergeben sich neben dem Nachweis fokaler Leberläsionen Möglichkeiten der Charakterisierung durch Analyse der Perfusionsmuster. Atemgehaltene T 1-gewichtete FLASH-Sequenzen waren sonstigen T 1-gewichteten Sequenzen ohne und mit Fettgesättigung überlegen.
