✦ Synopsis

Abstract

Time‐of‐flight effects depend on the displacement of blood with respect to a region of excitation. When combined with static material suppression and projection imaging, time‐of‐flight effects provide a flexible means of flow sensitization for magnetic resonance (MR) angiography. Bolus tracking, flow enhancement by spin replacement, and selective tagging are three classes of methods being pursued for MR angiography. © 1990 Academic Press, Inc.

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
