Popis: | To study the effects of flow acceleration and high-velocity jets on the display characteristics of cine magnetic resonance imaging compared with color Doppler flow mapping, a custom-designed in vitro flow model was developed. This model consisted of a funnel segment tapering to an orifice (0.78 cm2) that leads into a confined receiving chamber with a second, discrete orifice (0.78 cm2) at its distal end. Cine magnetic resonance images obtained at varying flow rates (1.5 to 27.2 L/min) demonstrated loss of signal intensity throughout the tapering zone of spatial acceleration and a small zone of more marked signal loss immediately proximal to the second orifice (always |
