The assessment of stent lumen patency via non–contrast-enhanced 2-dimensional time-of-flight magnetic resonance angiography (2D TOF MRA) is complex due to stent-related artifacts. However, an imaging technique using the phase-contrast method, which can reduce susceptibility to artifact, is available. Herein, we report the use of 3-dimensional velocity vector image obtained via 4-dimensional flow magnetic resonance imaging (4D flow MRI) for in-stent flow visualization after stent development in the right superficial femoral artery. Hence, instead of 2D TOF MRA, 4D flow MRI using the phase-contrast method can be performed to assess stent lumen patency as it reduces stent-related artifacts. |
