  • Title: Automated detection of bolus arrival and initiation of data acquisition in fast, three-dimensional, gadolinium-enhanced MR angiography.
    Author: Foo TK, Saranathan M, Prince MR, Chenevert TL.
    Journal: Radiology; 1997 Apr; 203(1):275-80. PubMed ID: 9122407.
    Abstract:
    Automatic triggering of magnetic resonance (MR) angiography with detection of a contrast material bolus was evaluated. Signal intensity changes with time were tracked in a prescribed tracking or monitoring volume by a parallel signal processing unit that automatically started data acquisition once user-defined thresholds were exceeded. This technique, referred to as MR Smartprep, was reliable and avoided the inconsistencies of manual timing.
