Advances in abdominal, aortic, and peripheral contrast-enhanced MR angiography.
This article reviews the basic principles of contrast-enhanced MR angiography, including methods used for sequence optimization and bolus timing, and describes clinical applications of contrast-enhanced MR angiography in the aortic, abdominal, and peripheral arteries. Novel MR angiography imaging techniques also are described, including moving table-top MR angiography, MR fluoroscopy, and time-resolved MR angiography.
