Keywords: Atherosclerosis, AtherosclerosisClinical imaging procedure for vascular evaluation and tissue characterization often needs separate MR scans. Both scenarios require multiple imaging sequences with different image contrasts, which results in long exam times and image misalignment due to possible motion between the scans that needs to be corrected in post-processing. In this work, the recently proposed REACT (Relaxation-Enhanced Angiography without ContrasT) technique was further developed and combined with multi-echo data acquisitions and Dixon-based chemical-shift-based water-fat separation. Initial results in patients showed great promise in detection and assessment of vascular and vessel wall lesions in one single scan.
