Welcome to health care magic.
1.Its good to have MRA - MRI angiogram, which has less radiation and more detail study.
2.MR angiogram will help in detecting the vessel cabler, even volume measurements.
3.With the help of multi planner - different views can be done.
4.Reconstuctive 3d images for the vessels, with subtraction of rest of the structure
5.Angiogram is good in contrast delineation , but radiation which needs to think of, may be because of it it happened. Good luck.
Hope i have answered your query.
Any thing to ask do not hesitate. Thank you.
