FAQs

Who may need MRA Lower Abdomen & Lower Limbs (Infrarenal)?

This examination may be recommended for patients with leg pain while walking, reduced blood flow to the legs or feet, suspected peripheral arterial disease, non-healing wounds, or suspected narrowing or blockage of the arteries supplying the pelvis and lower limbs.

Can MRA detect arterial narrowing or blockage?

Yes. It can help identify stenosis and occlusion in the abdominal, pelvic, and lower-limb arteries and determine their location and extent.

Can this examination help in vascular treatment planning?

Yes. Detailed vascular imaging can help doctors understand the location and extent of arterial disease and assist in planning endovascular or surgical treatment.

Is MRA Lower Abdomen & Lower Limbs different from a routine abdominal MRI?

Yes. A routine abdominal MRI mainly evaluates organs and soft tissues, whereas MRA is specifically optimized to evaluate blood vessels and arterial circulation.

Do I need any preparation before the examination?

Preparation depends on the centre's protocol. If contrast is planned, inform the MRI team about kidney disease, previous contrast reactions, pregnancy or possible pregnancy, metallic implants, pacemakers, and other implanted medical devices. You may also be asked to follow specific fasting instructions.
