High resolution imaging of the intracranial vessel wall at 3 and 7 T using 3D fast spin echo MRI.

Objectives High resolution MRI of the intracranial vessel wall provides important insights in the assessment of intracranial vascular disease. This study aims to refine high resolution 3D MRI techniques for intracranial vessel wall imaging at both 3 and 7 T using customized flip angle train design, and to explore their comparative abilities.
