Abstract

The effects of superficial venous intervention on hemodynamics can be quantified using two-dimensional phase-contrast magnetic resonance imaging (2D PC-MRI). Twelve patients received pre- and postintervention 2D PC-MRI analysis using quantitative hemodynamic parameters. Fifteen healthy volunteers served as controls. The 2D PC-MRI results of the target limbs (limbs scheduled for intervention for venous reflux) differed from those of the controls in terms of stroke volume (SV), forward flow volume (FFV), absolute stroke volume (ASV), and mean flux (MF) in all venous segments. The velocity time integral (VTI) and mean velocity (MV) of the popliteal vein (PV) segments were similar between the target limbs and controls preoperatively. After intervention, the target limbs exhibited an increase in VTI and MV in the femoral vein (FV) and PV segments. We compared the target and nontreated limbs of the individual patients preoperatively and postoperatively to minimalize individual bias. All QFlow parameter ratios in the FV segment increased after venous intervention (VTI, p = 0.025; MV, p = 0.024). In the PV segment, FFV and ASV increased significantly (p = 0.035 and 0.024, respectively). After interventions, the volume (FFV and ASV) of the PV segment and the efficiency (VTI and MV) of the FV segment significantly increased.
