There has been significant progress made in 3-dimensional (3D) carotid plaque MR imaging techniques in recent years. Three-dimensional plaque imaging clearly represents the future in clinical use. With effective flow-suppression techniques, choices of different contrast weighting acquisitions, and time-efficient imaging approaches, 3D plaque imaging offers flexible imaging plane and view angle analysis, large coverage, multivascular beds capability, and even can be used in fast screening.
近年来,三维(3D)颈动脉斑块磁共振成像技术取得了显著进展。三维斑块成像显然代表了临床应用的未来。借助有效的血流抑制技术、不同对比加权采集的选择以及高效的成像方法,三维斑块成像提供了灵活的成像平面和视角分析、大覆盖范围、多血管床成像能力,甚至可用于快速筛查。
