ANGIORESONANCY

  • Intracranial vessel angiography.
  • Extracranial vessel angiography
  • Angioresonance of the thoracic and abdominal aorta
  • Arterial or venous magnetic resonance imaging of upper and lower limbs. 

Angioresonance is a non-invasive diagnostic test that uses magnetic fields to generate detailed images of the blood vessels in the body. It is a non-invasive technique that may not require the injection of contrast.

During the study, the patient lies down on a table that moves inside an MRI tube. Magnetic fields and radio waves are used and picked up by coils in each region, which are analyzed and translated into high-quality images of blood vessels, including the heart, lungs, brain, and extremities. 

CONTRAINDICATIONS

Absolute contraindications for magnetic resonance imaging include:

 *Pacemakers and heart valves not specifically designed for use in magnetic resonance imaging.
* Cardioversion defibrillators.
* Neurostimulators.
* Cochlear implants.
* Internal irrigation pumps.

Currently, there are pacemakers, brain clips, and heart valves that are magnetic, and they must be properly evaluated before exposure to magnets.

Most implants and orthopedic prostheses do not have ferromagnetic properties and are compatible with magnetic resonance imaging.
