Abstract(in English) Fresh blood imaging (FBI) is a non-enhanced MR angiography (MRA) technique, which employs arterial signal difference between systole and diastole during a cardiac cycle, i.e., subtraction of the diastolic bright-blood arteries from the systolic black-blood arteries allowed visualization of the arteries by cancelling the veins. The purpose of this study is to evaluate the effect of food intake on the visualization of peripheral arteries and the quality of the FBI images. Pelvic and femoral region of six normal healthy volunteers were examined at six phases (between pre-food intake and 4 hours after). At phase of after food intake, arterial signal resulted in significantly higher compared with pre-food intake. Depiction of peripheral arteries using FBI improves after food intake, which may be reflecting the increase in peripheral blood flow. FBI technique allows us to obtain physiologically blood flow information.
