We established an easy-to-use technique for performing contrast-enhanced carotid MR angiography (MRA) with a commercial scanner. Twenty-three patients with suspected carotid or vertebral arterial lesions were prospectively studied. Two techniques were applied in the study. After performing sagittal time-resolved acquisitions, we undertook a coronal single-phase 3D acquisition, in which the injection timing was estimated from the preceding images. In each case, we obtained multidirectional images with sufficient venous suppression. The combined use of time-resolved and single-phase 3D MRA is a feasible technique for obtaining selective arterial images without the use of special applications or hardware.
