Holdsworth SJ, et al. - This study was conducted to compare silent T1-weighted and unenhanced MR angiography (MRA) against conventional sequences in a clinical population. Conventional T1-weighted images were preferred overall; however, most silent T1-weighted images were rated as equivalent to or better than conventional images and represent a potential alternative for imaging of noise-averse patients. In this study, silent MRA scored markedly worse and is not recommended at this time.
