Applications of phase-contrast velocimetry sequences in cardiovascular imaging
2012
Abstract Aims To describe and illustrate the main applications of phase-contrast flow quantification in cardiovascular imaging. Conclusion Phase-contrast velocimetry sequences provide an accurate, reliable, reproducible and non-invasive study of blood flow, information which is sometimes not available from other investigation methods. The haemodynamic information obtained from these complement MRI angiography images. They appear to have a range of clinical applications, firstly improving pathophysiological understanding but also contributing to the treatment and follow-up strategy after surgical or endovascular treatment.
