Method and apparatus for magnetic resonance imaging of arteries using a magnetic resonance contrast agent

   
   

The present invention is a technique and apparatus for providing preferential enhancement of an artery of interest relative to adjacent veins and background tissue by correlating the collection of a predetermined portion of data (for example, image data which is representative of the central portion of k-space) of a magnetic resonance contrast image during the arterial phase of the magnetic resonance contrast enhancement.

A invenção atual é uma técnica e um instrumento para fornecer o realce preferential de um artery das veias do interesse e do tecido adjacentes relative.to do fundo correlacionando a coleção de uma parcela predeterminada dos dados (para o exemplo, os dados da imagem que são representante da parcela central do k-espaço) de uma imagem do contraste do resonance magnético durante a fase arterial do realce do contraste do resonance magnético.
