What is Magnetic Resonance Angiogram (MRA)?

A magnetic resonance angiogram (MRA) is a type of magnetic resonance image (MRI) that uses a magnetic field and pulses of radio wave energy to provide pictures of blood vessels inside the body. MRA can often provide information that cannot be obtained from an X-ray, ultrasound, or CT scan.
