Abstrakt: | Pulmonary MR angiography (MRA) is a useful alternative to computed tomographic angiography (CTA) for the study of the pulmonary vasculature. For pulmonary hypertension and partial anomalous pulmonary venous return, a cardiac MR imaging and the pulmonary MRA are useful for flow quantification and planning treatment. For the diagnosis of pulmonary embolism (PE), MRA-PE has been shown to have non-inferior outcomes at 6 months when compared with CTA-PE. Over the last 15 years, pulmonary MRA has become a routine and reliable examination for the workup of pulmonary hypertension and the primary diagnosis of PE at the University of Wisconsin.
