Different techniques are available for peripheral artery diameter measurement. Angiographic assessment of the radial artery (RA) during coronary procedures offers a potentially cost effective, less hazardous and accurate method. Besides, it can provide some additional information. This cross-sectional study aims to calculate RA diameter (RAD) angiographically and to investigate its relationship with common parameters. A total of 230 patients undergoing percutaneous trans-radial coronary procedures at a tertiary cardiac hospital in Dhaka were included in the study to measure RAD using quantitative coronary angiography software. Patients' height, weight, body mass index (BMI), and wrist circumference were recorded. The presence or absence of hypertension and diabetes was searched. The mean diameter of the RA was 2.35 ± 0.41 mm, and wrist circumference was 16.34 ± 1.05 cm. Males had significantly larger RADs (P < .001). No significant relation was encountered between RAD and hypertension (HTN) and diabetes mellitus. There was no significant correlation of RAD with BMI (r = -0.028, P = .676). However, wrist circumference was found to be positively associated with RAD (R = 0.214, P = .001). RAD although had a positive correlation with wrist circumference, but there was no relationship with HTN, diabetes mellitus, and BMI.
有多种技术可用于测量外周动脉直径。在冠状动脉手术过程中对桡动脉（RA）进行血管造影评估提供了一种潜在的具有成本效益、危害较小且准确的方法。此外，它还能提供一些额外信息。这项横断面研究旨在通过血管造影计算桡动脉直径（RAD），并研究其与常见参数的关系。在达卡一家三级心脏医院接受经皮桡动脉冠状动脉手术的230例患者被纳入研究，使用定量冠状动脉造影软件测量RAD。记录患者的身高、体重、体重指数（BMI）和腕围。查找是否存在高血压和糖尿病。RA的平均直径为2.35±0.41毫米，腕围为16.34±1.05厘米。男性的RAD明显更大（P<0.001）。未发现RAD与高血压（HTN）和糖尿病之间存在显著关系。RAD与BMI无显著相关性（r=-0.028，P=0.676）。然而，发现腕围与RAD呈正相关（R=0.214，P=0.001）。RAD虽然与腕围呈正相关，但与HTN、糖尿病和BMI均无关系。
