Abstract

An MRI system performs a three-dimensional fast, gradient-recalled echo pulse sequence to acquire NMR data for both 2D and 3D images during a CE-MRA scan. The 2D images may be acquired before, during or after the 3D image acquisition. The 2D images may be reconstructed in real-time and used to control the acquisition of the high resolution 3D image.
