Abstract

The purpose of our study was the evaluation of usefulness of Magnetic Resonance Angiography in diagnostic process in patients with arteriosclerosis of lower extremities and complications such as aneurysms and pseudoaneurysms. 105 patients were examined using 2D TOF method. We concluded the results were very similar as in radiological examinations. The MRA is a very helpful method in evaluation of constriction and occlusion of iliac and femoral arteries and aorta.
