(A) Coronal contrast-enhanced MR angiographic maximum intensity projection images of 67-year-old man presenting with bilateral claudication and significant stenosis in the left external iliac artery (short arrow) and an occlusion in the right superficial femoral artery (long arrow); (B) Sagittal black-blood image of the carotid bifurcation presenting positioning of carotid vessel wall sampling in the common carotid artery (C); (D) Sagittal image of the aorta presenting positioning of two one-directional through-plane velocity-encoded MRI acquisitions at the proximal and abdominal descending aorta. Pulse Wave Velocity is determined from wave propagation analysis between measurement sites (E).
