What exactly is an MRV sequence on an Hitachi Airis II .3 Tesla?
I realize it has to do with the venus system but if anyone knows anything I sure would appreciate your time and knowledge concerning this.
Also The physician I am working under(Neurologist), he would like to see my MRAs done with a phase encoding protocall? Is there such a thing? I hope someone out there can give me some knowledgable info on this. Thank you Sheila/Georgia :)

Has anybody who reads this ever encountered aliasing in phase contrast measurements in pixels where velocity did not exceed Venc? If so, could this be due to signal leakage of surrounding vessels? Thanks for your help!

3. .What makes MRI a better choice than DSA for evaluation of a bilateral renal artery stenoses at the orgins of the renal arteries?
a. It is a noisier examination
b. The contrast used is less nephrotoxic than DSA

b. hemosiderin
c. phagocytosis.
d. hemoglobin
5. .For cine gradient echo imaging with true FISP, which of the following statements is TRUE?
a. .images have better image contrast and acquisitions are faster than conventional cine gradient echo imaging
b. cine true FISP images can be performed on any MRI unit
c. to make true FISD images, intravenous gadolinium contrast is needed
d. .true FISP images cannot be used for breath- hold acquisitions because the sequence is too slow
