## Abstract ## Purpose: To determine the effect of cardiacβrelated carotid artery motion on the image quality of 3D contrastβenhanced MR angiography (CEMRA) in patients presenting with suspected carotid artery disease. ## Materials and Methods: Twenty patients with suspected carotid artery disea
Fast arterial-venous transit in the carotid arteries requires accurate, reliable timing of the acquisition to the bolus transit to maximize arterial signal and minimize venous artifacts. The rising edge of the bolus is not utilized in conventional elliptical-centric view-ordering because the critica
