Magnetic resonance angiography (MRA) has evolved significantly since first described in the early 1990s. Unrivaled image quality and freedom from artifacts has made it a reliable and widely utilized technique. Imaging at 3 T offers the potential for higher resolutions images with better temporal resolution compared to 1.5 T. This article will review the technique and contrast agents required to perform MRA at 3 T and the relevant clinical applications. We also discuss non-contrast enhanced MRA in the era of nephrogenic systemic fibrosis and future prospect for MRA at 3 T.
