SNR Optimized Contrast-Enhanced MRA of the Peripheral Vasculature using Patient Specific Timing Parameters: Comparison between High and Conventional Relaxivity Contrast Agents in Patient Suspected of Arterial Occlusive Disease
Introduction Single injection moving table peripheral contrast enhanced MR angiography is increasingly utilized for the evaluation of peripheral atherosclerotic occlusive disease (PAOD). Peripheral MRA (pMRA) is typically performed using a moving table technique during first passage of double to triple dose (0.2-0.3 mmol/kg) extracellular gadolinium chelate. The objective of this study was to c...

Background and purpose: Ôn time diagnosis and treatment of lower limb diseases are of crucial importance to the patients. Çonventional angiography is the standard procedure of diagnosis, which is followed by different problems such as, X-ray hazards, sensitivity to contrast drugs and complications of opening vessel. Doppler ultrasonography has low differentiation power. MR angiography is a s...

متن کاملHigh acceleration quiescent-interval single shot magnetic resonance angiography at 3T in patients with peripheral artery disease
Background Quiescent-Interval Single Shot (QISS) non-contrast MR angiography (QISS-MRA) is an emerging technique with growing evidence for its use in the evaluation of peripheral artery disease (PAD) at 1.5T [1,2]. The use of 3 Tesla MRI scans is becoming more common in clinical practice and offers the main advantage of roughly double the signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) than that of 1.5 Tesla MRI. ...
