Abstract
To solve the problem of injection timing in gadolinium MR angiography, a si mple procedure is proposed which allows the acquisition interval to be chos en after injection. Starting simultaneously with the injection, several con secutive acquisitions are made, after which raw data acquired in a contiguo us interval with a variable starting time are recombined to one data set, w hich is then used for delayed image reconstruction.
