Assessment of skeletal muscle perfusion by contrast medium first-pass magnetic resonance imaging: Technical feasibility and preliminary experience in healthy volunteers

Purpose To probe the potential and pitfalls of contrast medium first‐pass skeletal muscle perfusion imaging under reproducible stress conditions. Materials and Methods Magnetic resonance (MR) signal dynamics in calf muscle and lower‐leg arteries of 20 healthy volunteers were analyzed under postarter...
