METHOD OF MAGNETIC RESONANCE UROGRAPHY
Abstract
Magnetic resonance urography is performed by using two basic methods: MR urography of static liquid with heavily weighted pulse sequences and excretory MR urography with contrast enhancement. Both techniques in conjunction with a conventional abdominal and pelvic MRI make it possible to estimate the urinary system throughout.
