Abstract
This review article focuses on the advancements in non-contrast magnetic resonance angiography (NC-MRA) and its increasing importance in body imaging, especially for patients with renal complications, pregnant women, and children. It highlights the relevance of NC-MRA in chest, abdominal, and pelvis imaging and details various bright-blood NC-MRA techniques like cardiac-gated 3D Fast Spin Echo (FSE), balanced Steady-State Free Precession (bSSFP), Arterial Spin Labeling (ASL), and 4D flow methods. The article explains the operational principles of these techniques, their clinical applications, and their advantages over traditional contrast-enhanced methods. Special attention is given to the utility of these techniques in diverse imaging scenarios, including liver, renal, and pelvic imaging. The article underscores the growing importance of NC-MRA in medical diagnostics, offering insights into current practices and potential future developments. This comprehensive review is a valuable resource for radiologists and clinicians, emphasizing NC-MRA's role in enhancing patient care and diagnostic accuracy across various medical conditions.
