Magnetic Resonance Angiography of Cerebral Artery Aneurysms: Present Capabilities and Limitations

摘要: Magnetic resonance angiography (MRA) as a new completely noninvasive vessel imaging modality has undergone continuous improvement over the last few years. Intracranial pathological findings such arteriovenous malformations and aneurysms are challenging indications for this method due to their complex flow patterns smallness of relevant vessels that have be visualized give acceptable clinical accuracy. Thus, purpose study was evaluation MRA’s capabilities limitations in identification cerebral artery with special respect conventional X-ray gold standard vascular imaging.
