Abstract
Objective:
The goal of this investigation was to develop a technique for producing high-resolution gadolinium-enhanced MR images of the hand that show three-dimensional angiographic anatomy and permit measurement of distal soft-tissue perfusion.
Conclusion:
High-resolution MR angiograms of the hand, as well as qualitative perfusion information, can be produced using a rapid sequential gadolinium-enhanced three-dimensional gradient-echo technique.
