Overview

Not Applicable
Intervention
Not specified
Conditions
Peripheral arterial disease (PAD) is the expression of atherosclerosis in the lower limb distal to the aortic bifurcation, which is a major problem in the population of 55 years and older. The first manifestation of symptomatic PAD is usually intermittent claudication. In a minority of patients, the disease progresses to critical limb ischemia, i.e. rest pain and tissue necrosis.PAD was defined as symptoms of intermittent claudication and/ or critical ischemia with an ankle-brachial index < 0.90.

Eligibility Criteria

Inclusion Criteria

  • Men and women at least 18 years old with symptomatic PAD and an ankle\-brachial index \<0\.90 who were referred from the Department of Vascular Surgery for a diagnostic imaging workup to evaluate the feasibility of a revascularization procedure were eligible for enrollment.

Exclusion Criteria

  • Patients were excluded if they had contraindications for MR angiography (eg, pacemaker, cerebral vessel clipping, or claustrophobia) or CT angiography (eg, severe renal insuffiency or adverse reactions to iodinated contrast agent), or if they needed an acute intervention at the time of randomization.
