Brain MRA (blood vessel MRI, with contrast)

An MRA maps the arteries of the head rather than the brain tissue. This version uses an injection of gadolinium to fill those vessels, which is the choice when blood is moving too slowly or too erratically for the injection-free technique to draw them reliably.
