Abstract/OtherAbstract:
OBJECTIVE: The purpose of our study was to show the usefulness and limitations of contrast-enhanced time-resolved MR angiography (MRA) for imaging the central veins of the chest. CONCLUSION: Time-resolved MRA is highly sensitive for the detection of abnormalities and is particularly useful in conjunction with static high-spatial-resolution MRA. However, several intrinsic limitations must be kept in mind.
