The diagnosis and treatment of mesenteric occlusive disease is important due to the high morbidity and mortality associated with ischemia of the bowel. This article describes the application of magnetic resonance angiography (MRA) as a minimally invasive tool for diagnosing mesenteric and portal vas

Magnetic resonance angiography is most commonly performed with the three-dimensional (3D) time-of-flight (TOF) technique. As currently practiced. this requires long image acquisition times (5-10 minutes). The authors show that the acquisition time of 3D TOF images can be reduced to less than 1 minut
## Abstract Noninvasive methods to visualize blood flow in the intratumoral vasculature have not previously been studied. In the present study, the use of a novel intravascular MR contrast agent with a generationβ6 polyamidoamine dendrimer core (G6β(1B4MβGd)~192~; MW: 175kD) was investigated, and t
## Abstract ## Purpose To evaluate intravenous hematocrit (HCT) layering detected in patent calf veins that potentially simulate filling defects seen in deep venous thrombosis (DVT). ## Materials and Methods Flow characteristics, vessel size, and enhancement patterns of veins with HCT layering w
