Purpose : Authors correlated the three-dimensional time-of-flight MRA signal intensity characteristics and flow profile simulated by computer in an experimental flow phantom model. Materials and Methods : The three-dimensional time-of-flight MRA was performed in a fusiform flow phantom and analyzed the flow signal. computer assisted flow simulation was performed in same flow geometry. The MRA signal intensity and flow velocity distribution and direction was compared. Results : The flow was depicted as homogeneous signal internsity in inlet and outlet area and inhomogeneous signal intensity in fusiform area. Typically, the flow was depicted as target appearance in transition area to outlet. Whereas mean signal internsity decreased slowly in fusiform area, it rapidly dropped and resumed in transition area to outlet. In computer assisted flow simulation, Whereas there were flow velocity decrease and flow direction change to peripheral in entrance to fusiform area, ther were rapid flow velocity resuming and flow direction change to central in transition area to outlet. Conclusion : The signal loss and target appearance in transition area to outlet is characteristic of fusiform flow. These signal changes correlate with abrupt flow velocity and direction change well.
