Abstract

In recent years the diagnostic potential of magnetic resonance angiographic acquisition techniques has been improved. Today aneurysms are investigated by MR angiography with a high diagnostic potential. In the pretreatment assessment important details can be depicted by MRA with high efficacy. This review article gives an evaluation on the most important techniques, CE-MRA and 3D-TOF-MRA.
