## Abstract We have been using a high resolution real time ultrasound mechanical sector scanner to visualize the carotid bifurcation. Twenty‐six patients were studied before carotid arteriography for transient ischemic attacks. One bifurcation was not adequately visualized. Of the remaining 51, pla

## Abstract High resolution MRI at 3 T and US imaging at 50 MHz were used for atherosclerotic plaque characterization. For 14 excised segments of human arteries, conventional MR and US images, quantitative MR T2 maps, US integrated attenuation (IA) maps, and histologic sections were produced and co
## Abstract Cine MRI is used for assessing cardiac function and flow and is typically based on a breath‐held, segmented data acquisition. Breath holding is particularly difficult for patients with congestive heart failure or in pediatric cases. Real‐time imaging may be used without breath holding o
