Abstract:
MR angiography (MRA) is a powerful tool for imaging of the extremities, allowing a thorough assessment of the arteries and veins in both the upper and lower limbs. Both contrast-enhanced and noncontrast MRA techniques are described in the online presentation, including practical tips and tricks to obtain all necessary information at every examination. This module is the sixth and final segment in a series created on behalf of the Society for Magnetic Resonance Angiography (SMRA), a group of researchers and clinicians who are passionate about the benefits of MRA but understand its challenges. The full digital presentation is available online. ©RSNA, 2022.

Pulmonary Angiogram
A Pulmonary Angiogram is an invasive procedure involving injecting a contrast medium through a catheter threaded into the pulmonary artery or the right side of the heart to visualize the pulmonary vasculature. Computed Tomography (CT) scans have mainly replaced this...

Jugular Venous Pressure (JVP) Measurement
Position the patient at a thirty- to forty-five-degree angle or in a semi-fowler's position. Look for the highest point of pulsation in the internal jugular vein and measure the vertical distance to the angle of Loius or sternal angle. A normal JVP is 3-4 cm above...
