  2. Phase contrast magnetic resonance imaging - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Phase_Contrast_Magnetic...

    Phase contrast MRI is one of the main techniques for magnetic resonance angiography (MRA). This is used to generate images of arteries (and less commonly veins) in order to evaluate them for stenosis (abnormal narrowing), occlusions, aneurysms (vessel wall dilatations, at risk of rupture) or other abnormalities. MRA is often used to evaluate ...

  3. Magnetic resonance angiography - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Magnetic_resonance_angiography

    Magnetic resonance angiography (MRA) is a group of techniques based on magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) to image blood vessels. Magnetic resonance angiography is used to generate images of arteries (and less commonly veins) in order to evaluate them for stenosis (abnormal narrowing), occlusions, aneurysms (vessel wall dilatations, at risk of rupture) or other abnormalities.

  4. MRI pulse sequence - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/MRI_pulse_sequence

    An MRI pulse sequence in magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) is a particular setting of pulse sequences and pulsed field gradients, resulting in a particular image appearance. [ 1 ] A multiparametric MRI is a combination of two or more sequences, and/or including other specialized MRI configurations such as spectroscopy .

    The result is a lifetime risk and a five-year risk based on factors that have been tied to a higher risk of breast cancer. For comparison, it also gives an average risk for U.S. women of the same ...

  6. Magnetic resonance imaging - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Magnetic_resonance_imaging

    Magnetic resonance angiography (MRA) generates pictures of the arteries to evaluate them for stenosis (abnormal narrowing) or aneurysms (vessel wall dilatations, at risk of rupture). MRA is often used to evaluate the arteries of the neck and brain, the thoracic and abdominal aorta, the renal arteries, and the legs (called a "run-off").

  7. Digital subtraction angiography - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/.../Digital_subtraction_angiography

    Digital subtraction angiography (DSA) is a fluoroscopy technique used in interventional radiology to clearly visualize blood vessels in a bony or dense soft tissue environment. Images are produced using contrast medium by subtracting a "pre-contrast image" or mask from subsequent images, once the contrast medium has been introduced into a ...

  8. Computed tomography angiography - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/.../Computed_tomography_angiography

    Computed tomography angiography (also called CT angiography or CTA) is a computed tomography technique used for angiography —the visualization of arteries and veins —throughout the human body. Using contrast injected into the blood vessels, images are created to look for blockages, aneurysms (dilations of walls), dissections (tearing of ...

  9. MRI contrast agent - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/MRI_contrast_agent

    Gadolinium (III) containing MRI contrast agents (often termed simply "gado" or "gad") are the most commonly used for enhancement of vessels in MR angiography or for brain tumor enhancement associated with the degradation of the blood–brain barrier (BBB). [3][4] Over 450 million doses have been administered worldwide from 1988 to 2017. [5]
