Conventional contrast-enhanced peripheral MR angiography (MRA) typically uses subtraction-based methods, which are susceptible to misregistration from patient motion and suffer from decreased signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) relative to non-subtractive methods. Previous work has demonstrated the use of non-subtractive contrast-enhanced peripheral MRA at 3.0 T during the steady state and at 1.5 T using a bolus-chase method. This work investigates the clinical feasibility of using a contrast-enhanced, time-resolved, non-subtractive method for MRA at 3.0 T in patients with peripheral vascular disease.
