摘要：
In an MRI system using high-performance gradient hardware, a method includes de-rating selected lobes in a 2DTOF imaging pulse sequence; employing images from the two-dimensional imagery to detect the presence of disease; and performing three-dimensional contrast-enhanced MRA if disease was detected at a sufficiently high level to make three-dimensional imaging useful. By de-rating selected lobes of the 2DTOF imaging pulse sequence, sensitivity to carotid stenosis at or above the clinically important range of 60-70% is achieved.
