Gadolinium-enhanced three-dimensional magnetic resonance angiography of pulmonary and systemic venous anomalies.
OBJECTIVE The goal of this study was to evaluate the diagnostic value of gadolinium (Gd)-enhanced three-dimensional (3D) magnetic resonance angiography (MRA) in patients with congenital and acquired anomalies of the pulmonary and systemic veins. BACKGROUND Gadolinium-enhanced 3D MRA is a fast magnetic resonance imaging technique that has shown great promise in the evaluation of large and medi...
متن کاملContrast-enhanced magnetic resonance angiography.
With technological advances in magnetic resonance angiography (MRA), spatial resolution of 1-mm perforating vessels can reliably be visualized and accurately located in reference to patients' anatomic landmarks without exposing patients to ionizing radiation or iodinated contrast, resulting in optimal perforator selection, improved flap design, and increased surgical efficiency. As their experi...
متن کاملContrast-enhanced magnetic resonance angiography carotid arteries.
Angiography Carotid Arteries To the Editor: We were very interested to read the recent study by Johnston et al1 regarding the use of contrast-enhanced MRA (CEMRA) for carotid stenosis. The authors correctly highlight in their introduction the limitations of many current studies of noninvasive tests. We, however, remain to be convinced that their own study is an adequate reflection of the perfor...
متن کاملDiagnosis of congenital obstructive aortic arch anomalies in Chinese children by contrast-enhanced magnetic resonance angiography.
OBJECTIVE The purpose of this study was to evaluate the accuracy of contrast-enhanced magnetic resonance angiography for the diagnosis of congenital obstructive aortic arch anomalies in children and compare it with transthoracic echocardiography and other MR imaging techniques (ECG gated T1-weighted spin-echo imaging and gradient-echo cine imaging). MATERIALS AND METHODS Contrast-enhanced mag...
متن کاملThree-dimensional contrast-enhanced magnetic resonance pulmonary angiography in the study of pulmonary vascular pathology.
OBJECTIVES To assess the feasibility of performing pulmonary angiography using MRI with contrast enhancement in patients with pulmonary vascular disease. METHODS We present our experience in ten individuals, two controls and eight patients who underwent the exam after injection of a gadolinium-based contrast agent on a 1 Tesla MR scanner using a time-of-flight sequence and breath-holding duri...
