Contrast-Enhanced MR Angiography Is Not More Accurate than Unenhanced 2D Time-of-Flight MR Angiography for Determining >70% Internal Carotid Artery Stenosis AJNR 30:761-768, Babiarz,L.S.,et al, 2009 See this aricle in Pubmed Article Abstract Although it is established that CE-MRA more accurately delineates neurovascular anatomy than does unenhanced 2D TOF MRA, the administration of gadolinium did not offer a significant advantage in distinguishing surgically treatable ICA stenosis. This conclusion may be important in patients with contraindications to gadolinium.
