    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.

  9. Anterior choroidal artery - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Anterior_choroidal_artery

    The anterior choroidal artery typically originates from the internal carotid artery.It may (rarely) instead arise from the middle cerebral artery. [1]It originates from the distal internal carotid artery (ICA) 5 mm distal to the origin of the posterior communicating artery and just proximal to the terminal bifurcation of the ICA.
