Black-blood and segmented k-space magnetic resonance angiography.
K-space segmentation can be used to produce both black-blood and bright-blood images that improve visualization of blood vessels in the presence of disturbed or time-varying flow. When used judiciously, these techniques can serve as effective problem-solving tools in clinical situations in which alternative techniques are prone to error.
