Evaluating contrast kinetics by acquiring 2D images during 3D contrast-enhanced MR angiography.
To monitor contrast kinetics by acquiring multiple 2D images during 3D contrast-enhanced magnetic resonance angiography (CE MRA). ⋯ Integrating 2D and 3D sequences into one sequence to monitor contrast kinetics through the neurovasculature is feasible without the need for extra injections or reduced spatial resolution. The technique can also be used in different parts of the body to extract useful clinical information.
