Popis: | Background Phase-Contrast MRI (PC-MRI) is a standard tool used for the quantitation of flow in everyday cardiac MR studies. However current methods require multiple breathholds and post-acquisition analysis. A PC-MRI sequence that provides real-time acquisition and display of quantitative flow rates has the potential to substantially reduce scan times while providing the clinician with the immediate ability to query flow trends and disturbances. The feasibility of using real-time MRI for the quantitation of flow has been previously reported (Joseph, et al. JMRI 2014, 40:206-213). We have implemented a real-time sequence using the Heartvista cardiac package (HeartVista, Inc., Menlo Park, CA) for this initial, in vivo validation study. |
