Indications: intestinal ischemia 

Sequences:

·        Axial tru-FISP (liver to ischial tuberosities)

·        Coronal tru-FISP

·        Sagittal tru-FISP

·        Sagittal MRA (pre-, post-Gd): abdomen/pelvis

·        Rotating 3-D maximum-intensity-projection reformats

Comments:

Dictation template:

Pre-contrast axial, coronal, and sagittal tru-FISP acquired through the abdomen and pelvis.  Dynamic sagittal MRA during the administration of 0.1-0.4 mmol/kg of intravenous Gadolinium contrast (up to 20 mL), with 3-dimensional maximum intensity projection (MIP) reformats performed.
