Magnetic resonance angiography (MRA) is essential to characterize luminal changes and detect abnormalities in peripheral vascular diseases. However, clear depiction of the vascular structures without contrast within a short scan time remains challenging and is often limited by complicated exam and long procedure time. In this study, we employ planning-less REACT-MD (Relaxation-Enhanced Angiography without Contrast and Triggering with Multiple Delays) with simultaneous non-contrast MRA and black-blood imaging for fast and simple run-off exams of the lower extremities without additional scout acquisition and volume planning, aiming to provide multi-contrast images with diagnostic quality and simplified clinical workflow.
