ABSTRACT
BACKGROUND:
Four-dimensional flow magnetic resonance imaging (4D flow MRI) provides volumetric and time-resolved visualization and quantification of blood flow. This review presents an overview of possible applications of 4D flow MRI for non-invasive assessment of abdominal hemodynamics.METHOD:
This review is based on the authors' experience and the current literature. A PubMed database literature research was performed in December 2019 focusing on abdominal applications of 4D flow MRI. We illustrated the review with exemplary figures and movies of clinical cases from our institution. RESULTS ANDCONCLUSION:
4D flow MRI offers the possibility of comprehensive assessment of abdominal blood flows in different vascular territories and organ systems. Results of recent studies indicate that 4D flow MRI improves understanding of altered hemodynamics in patients with abdominal disease and may be useful for monitoring therapeutic response. Future studies with larger cohorts aiming to integrate 4D flow MRI in the clinical routine setting are needed. KEY POINTS · 4D flow MRI enables comprehensive visualization of the complex abdominal vasculature. · 4D flow MRI enables quantification of abdominal blood flow velocities and flow rates. · 4D flow MRI may enable deeper understanding of altered hemodynamics in abdominal disease. · Further validation studies are needed prior to broad distribution of abdominal 4D flow MRI.
