Overview
Magnetic resonance angiography (MRA) is the noninvasive imaging of choice for aortitis. On MRA, aortitis is characterized by stenoses at multiple levels, mural thrombi, and thickening of aortic valve cusps.
MRI
Magnetic resonance angiography (MRA) is the noninvasive imaging of choice for aortitis, especially for cases of aortitis associated with Takayasu arteritis and giant cell arteritis. On MRA, aortitis is characterized by:[1]
- Stenoses at multiple levels
- Mural thrombi
- Thickening of aortic valve cusps
