Magnetic Resonance Angiography [PDF]

open access: possible, 2001
Magnetic resonance angiography (MRA) has become an important technique in vascular diseases. Although conventional digital subtraction angiography (DSA) still is the gold standard for the evaluation of vascular pathology, MRA provides more than just anatomic information. In all MRA techniques, image contrast is the result of blood motion.

Multiecho magnetic resonance angiography

Magnetic Resonance in Medicine, 1987
AbstractSeveral pulse sequences which generate projected MR angiograms are presented. These pulse sequences exploit multiple‐gradient refocused echoes to obtain several independent angiograms, which can be combined or separately analyzed to provide more information than an individual angiogram. For example, a series of angiograms, each with a different

Instrumentation for Magnetic Resonance Angiography

Cardiovascular and Interventional Radiology, 1992
Magnetic resonance angiography (MRA) places high demands on instrumentation capabilities. Magnetic gradient strength capabilities, main magnetic field strength and homogeneity, and eddy current compensation all play a role in determining the quality of the flow studies.

Magnetic resonance pulmonary angiography

Coronary Artery Disease, 1999
Just recently, use of magnetic resonance imaging for thoracic investigations has become increasingly appealing. This resurgence has been triggered by the enormous improvements in image quality with the development of scanners with faster data-acquisition capabilities and the routine use of contrast agents.

Magnetic Resonance Angiography in Prostatodynia

European Urology, 1995
Three-dimensional magnetic resonance venography (3D MRV) of the prostate and the pelvic cavity was demonstrated in 8 normal subjects and 12 patients with prostatodynia. In all normal subjects and patients, 3D MRV images were successfully obtained. The deep dorsal vein of the penis sends major branches into the anterior and lateral capsular veins as ...

Magnetic resonance coronary angiography

Current Cardiology Reports, 2003
Magnetic resonance coronary angiography (MRCA) has witnessed tremendous technical advances over the past decade. Although high-quality images of the coronary arteries have been demonstrated, this imaging modality is not performed routinely today. The fundamental properties of the coronary arteries deterring noninvasive imaging are well known.

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,

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).

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.

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.
