Volumetric Whole-Heart Three-Directional Tissue Phase Mapping of the Heart at 3T
Résumé
Up to now, tissue phase mapping (TPM) of the myocardium is normally performed by two-dimensional velocity encoded MRI, acquired in apical, equatorial and basal view orientation. Thus, huge parts of the myocardium are not covered. The aim of this work is to acquire a three-dimensional TPM data set covering the whole myocardium of the heart in a reasonable acquisition time.The complete version of this paper can be found at http://submissions.miracd.com/ismrm2011/proceedings/files/3294.pdf
