Initial experience of demonstrating hepatic artery in orthotopic liver transplanation candidates using high resolution contrast-enhanced MR angiography accelearated by generalized autocalibrating partial parallel acquisition / 中华放射学杂志

ABSTRACT

0.75).The distal branch of hepatic right/left artery were well delineated in 39 patients(scored 4),hepatic right/left artery in 23 patients(scored 3),proper hepatic artery in 4 patients(scored 2)and hepatic common artery in 1 patients(scored 1).The average score was 3.49.Fifty three cases with normal hepatic arterial anatomy and 14 cases with anomalies were accurately detected on high-resolution MRA images.Conclusion High- resolution contrast-enhanced MRA accelerated by GRAPPA could delineate the hepatic artery accurately.
