[Stereoscopic MR angiography of the abdomen]

We have developed a new method of stereoscopic MR angiography of the abdomen using gradient echo images. Consecutive coronal scanning of the abdomen was performed by fast scan during breath hold. These images were overlapped by means of MR angiography. Then two slightly different views that can give a true stereoscopic effect were constructed. The more precise spatial relationship of the abdominal vessels can be visualized with our new method.
