Abstract
Whole-body magnetic resonance angiography (WB-MRA) is a new approach for diagnosing atherosclerosis. Through utilisation of fast whole-body MRI systems, the arterial system, excluding the intracranial and coronary arteries, can be investigated in one examination. WB-MRA has the potential of replacing conventional catheter-based angiography in the diagnostic workup of patients with atherosclerotic disease. Developments in MRI contrast agents and MRI systems may further improve WB-MRA.
