During the last years because of the progress in magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) magnetic resonance angiography (MRA) has become a serious alternative to conventional X-ray angiography. The potential of MRA in combination with methods for three-dimensional reconstruction will be presented and different methods for image post-processing are discussed based on a number of cases. The examinations were performed on a clinical 1.5 T magnetic resonance tomograph (Siemens Vision, Erlangen) using conventional MR angiography sequences. The different options of post-processing were carried out online on the console and offline using dedicated workstations (Siemens Virtuoso and CHILI). DISCUSSION: Complex post-processing procedures are applied to different areas like pulmonary vasculature, thoracic aorta, abdominal aorta, and renal transplant arteries. Different diagnostic values can be seen for the variety of three-dimensional reconstruction methods. According to our experience volume rendering has been selected as the method of choice due to the time needed for reconstruction and the information content of the resulting image.
