Synopsis

Keywords: Blood vessels, Blood vesselsThe 3D magnetization-prepared rapid gradient-echo (MP-RAGE) and 3D phase contrast angiography (PCA) are widely used sequences in both clinical and research settings, due to high spatial resolution, excellent contrast, and clinically feasible scan time. Recent image acceleration techniques, such as compressed sensing and artificial intelligence reconstruction can drastically reduce scan times, allowing to create multi-domain imaging approaches. Here we introduce MPc-RAGE, a simultaneous MP-RAGE and PCA acquisition that combines the benefits of these two sequences in a single scan. Furthermore, we explore the possibility of the MPc-RAGE as a potential black blood technique for use in vessel wall imaging.
