Cine phase contrast angiography (PCA) is a modified MR phase contrast sequence that acquires up to 22 coronal phase images per mean cardiac cycle. The ability of the sequence to visualise local haemodynamics was investigated in 7 normal volunteers and 9 patients with flow disturbances of the peripheral arteries using a 1.5 T imager. Functional flow information provided by coronal cine PCA was correlated with quantitative data obtained by MR flow measurements and vessel morphology confirmed by conventional angiograms. Due to the yet suboptimal image quality, an aortic dissection and 1 of 4 aneurysms could not be depicted morphologically. The temporal pattern of arterial perfusion in cine PCA corresponded with flow velocity versus time data provided by quantitative MR flow measurements. Accuracy and time resolution of cine PCA was thus sufficient to provide functional information on the severity of occlusive vascular disease.
