Coronary magnetic resonance angiography

Journal of Magnetic Resonance Imaging, 2007
AbstractCoronary magnetic resonance angiography (MRA) is a powerful noninvasive technique with high soft‐tissue contrast for the visualization of the coronary anatomy without X‐ray exposure. Due to the small dimensions and tortuous nature of the coronary arteries, a high spatial resolution and sufficient volumetric coverage have to be obtained. However,

Stereotactic Magnetic Resonance Angiography

Stereotactic and Functional Neurosurgery, 1992
Visualization of the surgical trajectory with respect to the cerebral vasculature may enhance the safety of some stereotactic neurosurgical procedures. Traditional stereotactic angiography is tedious and, being an invasive procedure, poses some risk to the patient.

Magnetic Resonance Angiography Techniques

Investigative Radiology, 1992
After a radio frequency pulse, the decay of the magnetic resonance (MR) signal is described by two relaxation processes, T1 and T2. T1 describes the rate at which the magnetization realigns itself along the external magnetic field direction (ML), and T2 describes the rate of decay of the magnetization component along the transverse axis (MT).

Peripheral Magnetic Resonance Angiography

Topics in Magnetic Resonance Imaging, 2001
Peripheral vascular disease (PVD) is a common disorder in western society. Reflecting on the risks and costs of contrast arteriography, magnetic resonance angiography is a powerful noninvasive imaging modality for the diagnostic workup of patients with peripheral vascular disease.

GI magnetic resonance angiography

Gastrointestinal Endoscopy, 2002
MRA is a type of magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) in which blood appears bright. To form a magnetic resonance (MR) angiogram, a 3-dimensional set of thin sections is acquired through the region of interest. The images are then processed by computer to create a 2-dimensional projected display that resembles a conventional angiogram.

PORTAL MAGNETIC RESONANCE ANGIOGRAPHY

Magnetic Resonance Imaging Clinics of North America, 1993
MR angiography has shown definite clinical use in the portal venous system. Methods have been developed for noninvasive assessment of portal venous anatomy and blood flow using a variety of techniques. Time-of-flight techniques for portal angiography and both time-of-flight and phase-contrast techniques for flow measurement are reviewed.

Abdominal Magnetic Resonance Angiography

Magnetic Resonance Imaging Clinics of North America, 2020
MR imaging hardware and software improvements have led to new applications for contrast-enhanced and noncontrast-enhanced magnetic resonance angiography in the abdomen and pelvis. Higher magnetic field strength MR imaging scanners have greater signal-to-noise ratio and contrast-to-noise ratio, which is used to improve spatial resolution or temporal ...

Cerebral magnetic resonance angiography

Neurological Research, 1992
Magnetic resonance angiography (MRA) is an accurate non-invasive tool for imaging the cerebral vessels. It provides morphologic information about the cerebral vessels relying on blood flow as the physical basis for generating contrast between stationary tissues and moving spins.

Coronary Magnetic Resonance Angiography

Cardiology in Review, 2001
Despite advances in both prevention and treatment, cardiovascular disease remains the leading cause of morbidity and mortality in the United States. The current gold standard for the diagnosis of coronary artery disease is the x-ray coronary angiogram, which is both costly and associated with a small risk of morbidity. More than 1 million Americans are

Intracranial Magnetic Resonance Angiography

Cardiovascular and Interventional Radiology, 1992
Intraarterial angiography remains the "gold standard" for the evaluation of the intracranial vasculature, but it carries with it the risks of local vascular damage, systemic reactions, transient neurologic deficits, permanent neurologic compromise, and even death.
