Attenuation correction using Hawkeye is likely to improve diagnostic accuracy in men, but is less likely to be useful in women.

Background Contrast enhanced MRA is a well validated and widely used technique for noninvasive vascular imaging. Significant advances in coil development, parallel imaging, and view-sharing techniques can enable imaging with very high spatial and/or temporal resolution which can be tailored to very specific or problematic clinical situations. Cartesian acquisition with projection like reconstruction (CAPR) is a specific technique developed by our MR Research laboratory which supports very high acceleration factors and has been adopted into clinical practice for a number of clinical scenarios. We will present a brief introduction to the technique and an illustrative review of our early clinical experience using CAPR for clinical imaging.
