Contrast-enhanced MR angiography of abdominal aorta and lower extremity



Protocol:1.5Tesla.
Contrast Enhanced Angio performed with 3D TOF (Time of flight) sequence. The study viewed in row as well as 3D reconstructed images. The procedure performed in single session with I.V. 25cc Gadolinium (Multihance). MIP images of each side were produced separately to prevent superimposition on the lateral projections. Mask images obtained followed bolus chasing, the rapid moving-table technique used.
