    Abstract:
    OBJECTIVE: Eighteen healthy persons underwent unenhanced MR angiography with a breath-hold ECG-synchronized 3D half-Fourier fast spin-echo technique to evaluate the visibility of the portal vein and its branches. CONCLUSION: Our results indicated that unenhanced MR angiography with a singlebreath-hold ECG-synchronized 3D half-Fourier fast spin-echo sequence facilitates precise visualization of the anatomic features of the portal vein and its branches without the use of contrast agents.
