MRA MIPs from BH MP-SSFP parameter optimization. The images were obtained using the following imaging parameters: a) using optimal parameters consisting of an excitation flip angle = 90°, inversion preparation, maximum allowable TI, and ECG gating; b) using the minimum TI; c) using an excitation flip angle = 50°; d) without ECG gating; and e) using a saturation preparation pulse.
