Coronary Magnetic Resonance Angiography

Abstract: Coronary magnetic resonance angiography (CMRA) is a technique in clinical evolution. Current clinical applications include assessment for coronary anomalies, aneurysms, bypass graft patency, and, in experienced centers, the exclusion of proximal and multivessel coronary artery disease (CAD). As local expertise increases and more extensive multicenter data become available, additional applications will be established. CMRA promises to supplement and in some cases obviate the need for X-ray contrast angiography,… Show more

“…The visualization of coronary arteries by the electrobeam tomography (EBT) and MR have been validated for many years [8,9]. Due to the complex movements of the heart, the small dimensions and the tortuous course of the coronary arteries highly sophicated imaging methods are necessary to obtain a sufficient spatial and temporal resolution.…”

“…Coronary magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and coronary computed tomography angiography (CTA) both offer valuable capabilities to image proximal and mid-coronary artery disease (CAD) noninvasively (1,(4)(5)(6). Free-breathing coronary MRI is usually obtained in targeted 3D volumes aligned along the major axis of the right and/or left coronary artery system.…”
