## Abstract ## Purpose: To determine the effect of cardiacโrelated carotid artery motion on the image quality of 3D contrastโenhanced 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
Agenesis of the internal carotid artery (ICA) is a rare finding that can lead to the false diagnosis of an ICA occlusion. We present the case of a young woman with agenesis of the left ICA. Diagnosis was made noninvasively by color Doppler imaging (CDI) in combination with high-resolution CT of the
## Abstract Threeโdimensional magnetizationโprepared (MP) MR angiography (MRA) was applied to the carotid and vertebral arteries by using ECG triggering, a slab selective RF inversion pulse, centric phase encoding and acquisition during diastole. Both theoretically and experimentally, the MP MRA se
