The saturation phenomenon that limits vessel visibility in unenhanced time-of-flight MR angiograms can be overcome by the injection of MR contrast agents that shorten the T1 of the blood. Unlike the situation with unenhanced MR angiographic acquisitions, in which the MR parameters must be carefully adjusted to reduce saturation effects, optimization procedures for contrast-enhanced MR angiography focus on the acquired shortening of the T1 of the blood and the time evolution of the T1 over the entire measurement. To improve the quality of contrast-enhanced time-of-flight MR angiographic acquisitions in the brain, we compared different acquisition techniques that exploit shortening of the T1 of the blood.
