  • Title: [Nonenhanced MR angiography techniques].
    Author: Lanzman RS, Schmitt P, Kröpil P, Blondin D.
    Journal: Rofo; 2011 Oct; 183(10):913-24. PubMed ID: 21442557.
    Abstract:
    Especially in regard to the potential risks for the development of nephrogenic systemic fibrosis (NSF) following the administration of Gadolinium-based contrast material, nonenhanced MR angiography (MRA) methods are becoming ever more important. Besides well-established time-of-flight (TOF) and phase-contrast (PC) MRA, alternative imaging techniques based on balanced steady-state free precession (bSSFP) and turbo-spin-echo (TSE) sequences are increasingly used in combination with or without arterial spin labeling (ASL) strategies. This article provides an overview of the principles and clinical values of different nonenhanced MRA techniques. In addition, recent nonenhanced MRA developments are presented.
