Abstract:
Abdominal magnetic resonance (MR) angiography has become a robust technique for evaluation of the aorta and its major branch vessels. Its safety and accuracy make MR angiography an ideal choice for screening and diagnostic angiography of the abdominal aorta and renal and visceral arteries; however, interventional procedures (i.e., angioplasty and stenting) still require conventional digital subtraction angiography. This article focuses on practical applications of abdominal MR angiography that have been made possible by recent technological advances in MR hardware and software.

Radiological Investigation II: MRI and Ventilation Perfusion Scan
Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) and Ventilation Perfusion Scans are two radiological investigations that offer detailed diagnostic images of the body, particularly lung structures.
MRI
MRI uses magnetic fields and radiofrequency signals to distinguish between normal and abnormal tissues. This technology provides a more detailed diagnostic image than CT scans, enabling it to characterize pulmonary nodules, stage bronchogenic carcinoma, and evaluate inflammatory activity in...
