Abstract/OtherAbstract:
|
In 15 volunteers and 84 patients with clinically suspected peripheral vascular disease, a stepping kinematic imaging platform, a manual retrofit stepping magnetic resonance (MR) imaging table, was used with three high-field-strength MR imaging systems to perform multistation peripheral contrast material-enhanced MR angiography in the lower extremity with the existing system phased-array coil. Each examination was performed in less than 45 minutes. Mounting of the stepping kinematic imaging platform was quick and simple and allowed rapid repositioning of a patient relative to the phased-array coil and acquisition of high-spatial-resolution MR angiograms of the peripheral vasculature with use of one injection of MR imaging contrast agent. |
