title: Intraarterial digital subtraction angiography of renal transplants.
abstract: Nineteen renal allograft recipients with suspected vascular pathology of the graft were examined by digital subtraction angiography combined with intraarterial catheter technique. Image quality was excellent and diagnosis was definite in all cases. Dosages of contrast medium are reduced to a minimum (1.5 g iodine/patient) and the risk of nephrotoxic side effects is virtually negligible with this technique.
