In
this study, we evaluated the image quality of renal artery based on B-TFE sequence with SENSE and CS-SENSE.
CS factor of 6 is recommended for clinical renal artery imaging based on B-TFE
sequence.

Location of two ROI of the blood
vessels and the renal medulla. Use ROI to measure SI and SD on the left
sides. The measured left blood vessel SI value was 1651.55, muscle SI value was
152.66, and muscle SD value was 25.95.
