[Clinical use of contrast-enhanced MR angiography].
Compared to other non-invasive MR-angiography techniques, contrast-enhanced MR angiography is a robust imaging technique in the assessment of the arterial vascular system. This is due to the use of three-dimensional data acquisition, non-nephrotoxic paramagnetic contrast and short acquisition times. Clinical applications include the evaluation of the thoracic and abdominal arterial vessels. With the refinement of this technique also small peripheral arteries of the extremities can be imaged and an entire non-invasive diagnostic work-up of the peripheral arteries will be possible.
