Stenosis of renal transplant arteries is a common cause of graft dysfunction and hypertension. Conventionally it is investigated by intraarterial digital subtraction angiography (IA DSA). Recently three-dimensional phase contrast magnetic resonance angiography (MRA) has been used successfully as a non-invasive method of assessing renal transplant arteries. We report three cases where MRA was superior to IA DSA in the detection of renal transplant artery stenosis.
