Abstract
Subacute intravascular thrombus can contain methemoglobin, which results in very short spin‐lattice (T1) relaxation times. We describe a case of a 78‐year‐old man with increasing right lower extremity claudication. The patient had a thrombosed arterial bypass graft showing high signal intensity that mimicked flow on both two‐dimensional time‐of‐flight and three‐dimensional contrast‐enhanced MR angiography. Misinterpretation of the high signal thrombus as flowing blood can be avoided by obtaining a precontrast T1‐weighted sequence. J. Magn. Reson. Imaging 2000;11:192–194. © 2000 Wiley‐Liss, Inc.
