At 7T, venous saturation and magnetization transfer for Time of Flight (ToF) angiography cannot be applied directly due to the increased specific absorption rate. Additionally, motion artifacts can degrade the image quality. A sequence with prospective motion correction (PMC) and sparse saturation was implemented to overcome these challenges. In vivo ultra-high resolution ToF angiograms were acquired, providing dramatically improved level of detail and image quality if PMC and sparse saturation is used. Thus, the proposed sequence unleashes the full potential of ToF angiography at 7T.
