Magnetic resonance angiography imaging of pulmonary embolism using agents with blood pool properties as an alternative to computed tomography to avoid radiation exposure

ConclusionsThis single-center, preliminary study using contrast agents with blood pool properties to perform a relatively rapid combined MRA-MRV exam to image for PE and above knee DVT shows potential as an alternative imaging choice to CTPA. Further large-scale, multicentre studies are warranted.
