A member asked:
Are magnetic resonance angiogram and venogram usually performed with the posterior view or anterior? does it depend on symptoms and site of symptoms?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Cross sections of: body which are reconstructed in software to show any of multiple views, depending on machine, software, technician & radiologist chosen protocols. Symptoms & site of symptoms are not a driving factor in how the scan is performed. These issues are dictated by body anatomy & the construction of the scanning hardware.
