Abstract
The ability to assess the patency of coronary arteries by noninvasive means would represent an important advance. We have developed a magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) coronary angiographic technique that permits the display of areas of abnormal coronary blood flow. We have compared this method with conventional contrast angiography for the identification of coronary-artery stenoses.Keywords
