MR Angiography and Venogram

Non-Invasive Imaging of Arteries and Veins – Safe, Detailed & Radiation-Free

Your blood vessels carry life through your body—and seeing them clearly can help doctors detect and treat a variety of health conditions. At Atharv Diagnostic Center, we offer MR Angiography (MRA) and MR Venogram (MRV)—advanced MRI-based tests that create detailed images of arteries and veins without using harmful radiation.

What is MR Angiography (MRA)?

MR Angiography is a specialized MRI technique that captures clear images of the arteries. It is commonly used to check for:

• Narrowing or blockages in arteries (like in the brain, neck, kidneys, or legs)

• Aneurysms (weakened or bulging arteries)

• Arterial malformations or abnormalities

• Stroke or transient ischemic attack (TIA) evaluation

• Carotid artery disease

What is MR Venogram (MRV)?

MR Venogram is designed to visualize veins, especially in the brain or legs. It helps in diagnosing:

• Cerebral venous thrombosis (blood clots in brain veins)

• Deep vein thrombosis (DVT)

• Varicose veins or venous insufficiency

• Congenital venous abnormalities

• Blocked or compressed veins

Why Choose MRA and MRV?

• Non-invasive & painless

• No radiation exposure – unlike CT angiography

• May not require contrast dye (when used, it is a safer type called gadolinium)

• Highly detailed 3D images of blood vessels

• Helps in early detection and planning of treatments like stenting or surgery

What to Expect During the Scan

• The scan usually takes 30–60 minutes, depending on the area being examined.

• You will lie still in the MRI machine while images are captured.

• If contrast is needed, it will be injected through a small IV.

• The procedure is safe, comfortable, and no recovery time is needed.

• Results are reviewed by our experienced radiologists and shared with your doctor promptly.
