3D time-of-flight magnetic resonance angiography of lenticulostriate artery imaging at 5.0 Tesla: a hierarchic analysis method and clinical applications
The visibility in the branching of LSA with 5.0T TOF-MRA is superior to that of 3.0T, especially at the origination from the middle cerebral artery (MCA) and the periphery of its branches. With the implementation of the proposed hierarchic analysis method for LSA, 5.0T TOF-MRA could be a valuable instrument for identifying subtle changes in LSA associated with various cerebrovascular-related diseases.
