Mr angiography in cerebrovascular disease

Clin Radiol. 2001 Jun;56(6):437-56. doi: 10.1053/crad.2001.0618.

Abstract

MR angiography has become a realistic diagnostic option for patients with neurovascular disease. MR angiography is not a single imaging sequence, but a collection of related methods for obtaining angiographic data. As a guide for practice, we review the literature on MR angiography in a spectrum of neurovascular indications with particular attention paid to choice of technique. The principles underlying the different techniques available are also presented. Summers, P. E.et al.
