Description

Objective: To investigate the effect of pitfall MRA reconstruction imaging without intraluminal thrombus on endovascular exclusion for abdominal aortic aneurysm. Methods: Comparing the MRA reconstruction imaging with the MRA cross-section imaging, all of 22 patients underwent endovascular exclusion from Jan 2002 to Oct 2002 were included. Results: Intraluminal thrombus possessed the merit of clinical treatment, otherwise would mislead the evaluation of the procedure. Conclusions: It is important to use MRA reconstruction imaging evaluating abdominal aortic aneurysm combining MRA cross-section imaging
