Difference between angiography and Digital subtraction angiography?

In digital subtraction angiography (DSA), an image is obtained prior to the introduction of the radio-opaque contrast medium. This image is then digitally "subtracted" by turning it into a "negative" and then superimposing the image onto images acquired after the injection of contrast. This theoretically results in everything but the image of contrast within the vessel being subtracted, or removed, leaving a clearer picture. Often due to patient movement, breathing etc, the two images do not exactly superimpose and some residual shadow of the surrounding structures may be visible.

Is digital substraction angiography or DSA is a diagnostic technique that uses video and computer assisted enhancement of images?

Yes, DSA is a x-ray technique primary in peripheral cases. How it works is by taking a series of pictures without any contrast (called a mask). Next the same pictures are taken with contrast flowing thru the vessels. These two are layered on top of one another (by a computer). The results is the ability to "substrate" the bone from the image.

Why iodine is use in DSA?

A form of digital radiography that delineates blood vessels by subtracting a digitized tissue background image from an image of tissue injected with an intravascular contrast material with a high content of iodine that attenuates x-rays. Abbreviated DSA.
