A member asked:

What will a mra for a splenic artery aneurysm show? will it pick up any other unknown problems like tumors etc in other organs?

A doctor has provided 1 answer
Dr. Michael Gabor answered

Specializes in Diagnostic Radiology

Possibly,: but since the technical parameters are tailored for MRA and not for evaluating other areas or organs, the sensitivity/accuracy would not be high enough to reliably rule out various other abnormalities

Dr Cress and another doctor agreed
