Fig. 4B —Graphs show overall image quality scores. SMA = superior mesenteric artery, IMA = inferior mesenteric artery. Overall image quality scores for all arterial segments (A) and for arterial segments with > 10% narrowing (B). Data are mean ± SD, with SDs being shown by horizontal tic marks with each bar. Scoring scale was as follows: 1 = poor image quality and blurring of arterial segment; 2 = fair image quality, inadequate for confident diagnosis; 3 = good image quality and arterial enhancement, adequate for confident diagnosis; and 4 = excellent image quality and arterial enhancement, for highly confident diagnosis. Note that majority of arterial segments (82%) scored for image quality were relatively healthy (no stenosis or < 10% irregularities).
