Does moving away from the center frequency resonance benefit or hurt the valvular structure evaluation? A study of on and off peak resonance

Year: 2009

Type: article

Abstract: Cardiac MRI (CMR) is the diagnostic modality of choice for ventricular volumes and function. The qualitative and quantitative valve function by CMR is performed by SSFP and phase contrast imaging respectively. However, often times the valve and subvalvular morphologic details are not clearly visualized in a reproducible fashion limiting the complete interrogation of the heart.
