Abstract:Non-CE MRA techniques are black-or white-blood techniques. In the black-blood technique the signal-loss phenomenon in a spin-echo (SE) or fast-spin-echo (FSE) sequence is used, while in TOF or PC techniques the flowing blood generates a bright signal, engendered by the in-flow effect in TOF and by phase shift in PC [8]. The black-blood technique is used for detailed high-resolution imaging of the vessel wall (e.g., for coronary arteries) or of arteriosclerotic plaques. TOF angiography is used mainly for imagin… Show more
