Zusammenfassung

Summary Magnetic resonance angiography (MRA) is a non-invasive imaging technique for visualising blood vessels and blood flow. The first half of this article is a literature review of the three basic MRA techniques: Timeof-flight (TOF) angiography, phase-contrast angiography and contrast-enhanced angiography. Physical principles, technical requirements, investigated parameters, advantages and disadvantages of the methods, and the correlation between application of contrast medium and time of examination are discussed. Subsequent processing of the MR images using “maximum intensity projection“ (MIP) provided a th…
