We compare non-contrast enhanced MRA, SPIO enhanced MRA
and hyperpolarized
13
C
MRA in rat cerebral regions, and demonstrate how venous
structures can be imaged with acquisition times less
than a second. We describe optimized sequence designs
for each of the techniques. The hyperpolarized
13
C
shows promising results for angiographic imaging where
short acquisition time is essential, such as imaging
within a single heartbeat or breath hold.
