“…The various techniques of MRA include MR sequences such as time of flight (TOF), phase contrast (PC), fresh blood imaging (FBI), and contrast-enhanced MRA [ 5 – 11 , 13 , 15 , 16 , 27 – 37 ]. MRA using TOF (TOF-MRA) is the most time-efficient method for obtaining MRA images.…”

“…MRA using PC (PC-MRA) is a technique in which the background tissue signal is subtracted from the flow-enhanced image to produce flow-only images, analogous to digital subtraction X-ray angiography [ 38 ]. MRA as a new technique using FBI that has been applied to the 3D evaluation of vasculature [ 8 – 11 , 13 , 15 , 16 , 34 – 37 ]. FBI, which uses 3D half-Fourier fast advanced spin echo (FASE)-triggered MR with electrocardiographic (ECG) gating, is one of the newest non-enhanced-MRA techniques [ 8 – 11 , 13 , 15 , 16 , 34 – 37 ].…”

“…Recent advances in magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), 3D data acquisition, and postprocessing technologies are expanding the potential applications of 3D displays [ 5 – 16 ]. As a noninvasive technique, magnetic resonance angiography (MRA) has been developed to identify and characterize peripheral blood vessels located in the thoracic and abdominal regions and the lower extremity [ 17 – 22 ].…”

“…As a noninvasive technique, magnetic resonance angiography (MRA) has been developed to identify and characterize peripheral blood vessels located in the thoracic and abdominal regions and the lower extremity [ 17 – 22 ]. Of course, MRA is very useful to visualize the 3D structure of the vasculature in the oral and maxillofacial regions, and it is clinically significant for evaluating the relationship between lesions and vessels in the oral region [ 14 , 16 , 23 – 26 ]. General dentists should know and easily understand the clinical applications of MRA in the oral and maxillofacial regions.…”

The present paper provides general dentists with an introduction to the clinical applications and significance of magnetic resonance angiography (MRA) in the oral and maxillofacial regions. Specifically, the method and characteristics of MRA are first explained using the relevant MR sequences. Next, clinical applications to the oral and maxillofacial regions, such as identification of hemangiomas and surrounding vessels by MRA, are discussed. Moreover, the clinical significance of MRA for other regions is presented to elucidate future clinical applications of MRA in the oral and maxillofacial regions.

“…However, in bright-blood methods the signal from the moving protons is accentuated relative to the stationary protons of the surrounding tissue. 17,18 These flow-based techniques include mainly Time of Flight (TOF), Phase Contrast (PC), and Fast Spin Echo Imaging (FSE). 19 TOF is the most time-efficient method for obtaining MRA images.…”

Background As the face is known for its extreme variation in vascular anatomy and the number of filler‐associated complications due to intra‐arterial injection is increasing, we are in need of a method to visualize anyone’s individual arterial anatomy of the face in a completely harmless way. Aims The different medical imaging methods and a recently developed MRA protocol are reviewed. Methods The literature of the last twenty years—with special attention for the last five years—concerning the different medical imaging modalities of the facial arteries was reviewed. Results A harmless visualisation of the facial arteries is currently only possible with US or MRA. US may identify single vessels but never the complete arterial network. A combination of IR “heat enhancement” and a MRA 3D‐TOF sequence might make it feasible to visualize a large number of facial arteries in a risk‐free, radiation‐free, contrast‐free and non‐invasive way. Conclusion Currently, a new combination of IR “heat enhancement” and a MRA 3D‐TOF sequence might be the only method to visualize a large number of facial arteries.
