Fig. 6

Representative curved images obtained from a patient with subacute-to-chronic DVT on the right leg for 60 days. Thrombus can be found in iliac, femoral and popliteal segments covered by two stations. Large coverage is achieved and the thrombus identified by BTI matches with that by CE-MRV. Note that parts of the thrombus appear as hyper-intense signals on BTI match with those by MPRAGE in terms of the thrombus location and shape (red arrows). However, other parts of the thrombus appear as iso-intense signals, which are detectable by BTI but hardly identified by MPRAGE (yellow arrows)
