Contrast‐enhanced magnetic resonance angiography (MRA) is used to assess various cardiovascular conditions. However, gadolinium‐based contrast agents (GBCAs) carry a risk of dose‐related adverse effects. To develop a deep learning method to reduce GBCA dose by 80%. Retrospective and prospective. A total of 1157 retrospective and 40 prospective congenital heart disease patients for training/validation and testing, respectively. A 1.5 T, T1‐weighted three‐dimensional (3D) gradient echo. A neural network was trained to enhance low‐dose (LD) 3D MRA using retrospective synthetic data and tested with prospective LD data. Image quality for LD (LD‐MRA), enhanced LD (ELD‐MRA), and high‐dose (HD‐MRA) was assessed in terms of signal‐to‐noise ratio (SNR), contrast‐to‐noise ratio (CNR), and a quantitative measure of edge sharpness and scored for perceptual sharpness and contrast on a 1–5 scale. Diagnostic confidence was assessed on a 1–3 scale. LD‐ and ELD‐MRA were assessed against HD‐MRA for sensitivity/specificity and agreement of vessel diameter measurements (aorta and pulmonary arteries). SNR, CNR, edge sharpness, and vessel diameters were compared between LD‐, ELD‐, and HD‐MRA using one‐way repeated measures analysis of variance with post‐hoc t‐tests. Perceptual quality and diagnostic confidence were compared using Friedman's test with post‐hoc Wilcoxon signed‐rank tests. Sensitivity/specificity was compared using McNemar's test. Agreement of vessel diameters was assessed using Bland–Altman analysis. SNR, CNR, edge sharpness, perceptual sharpness, and perceptual contrast were lower (P < 0.05) for LD‐MRA compared to ELD‐MRA and HD‐MRA. SNR, CNR, edge sharpness, and perceptual contrast were comparable between ELD and HD‐MRA, but perceptual sharpness was significantly lower. Sensitivity/specificity was 0.824/0.921 for LD‐MRA and 0.882/0.960 for ELD‐MRA. Diagnostic confidence was 2.72, 2.85, and 2.92 for LD, ELD, and HD‐MRA, respectively (P LD‐ELD, P LD‐HD < 0.05). Vessel diameter measurements were comparable, with biases of 0.238 (LD‐MRA) and 0.278 mm (ELD‐MRA). Deep learning can improve contrast in LD cardiovascular MRA. 2 Stage 2
