Abstract/OtherAbstract:
|
Imaging of the arteries of the lower extremity is most often performed in patients who have known or suspected peripheral artery occlusive disease. Due to the recent advances in imaging modalities, the radiologic approach to the diagnosis of peripheral artery occlusive disease has changed substantially in the last few years. Recent technical developments such as the introduction of new image reconstruction algorithms and dedicated contrast agents have pushed the limits of MR angiography toward higher spatial resolution and image quality and have enabled time-resolved imaging. This article discusses various techniques of peripheral MR angiography, including step-by-step, hybrid, continuous table movement, and non-contrast-enhanced MR angiography. |
