  • Publication number: 20240077564
    Abstract: A method of using NC-MRA to generate pelvic veins images and measure rate of blood flow includes subjecting a lay patient to undergo magnetic resonance scan in cooperation with an ECG monitor and a respiration monitor; scanning coronary sections and transverse sections of kidney veins, lower cavity veins, common iliac veins, and external iliac veins to generate two-dimensional images wherein the two-dimensional images use balanced turbo field echo wave sequence; scanning coronary sections of common cardinal veins of abdominal cavity to generate three-dimensional images wherein the three-dimensional images use fast spin-echo short tau inversion recovery wave sequence and sample signals when the ECG monitor monitors myocardial contractility; and using quantification phase-contrast analysis to measure blood flowing through the transverse sections of the veins in a two-dimensional scan.
