Magnevist® Injection Enhanced MRA Compared to Non Contrast MRA for the Detection of Structural Abnormalities of the Aortic Arch and Cerebral Branches
Study Details
Study Description
Brief Summary
The purpose of this study is to look at the safety (what are the side effects) and efficacy (how well does it work) of Magnevist (the study drug) used for MRI of the aortic arch and cerebral branches. The results will be compared to the results of MRI taken without Magnevist, and with the results of your X-ray angiography.
