1123 Cardiac MR elastography: observation of stiffness-related shear-wave amplitude variations in 6 healthy volunteers. Address: Charite Universitaetsmedizin Berlin, Berlin, Germany * Corresponding author from 11th Annual SCMR Scientific Sessions Los Angeles, CA, USA. Published: 22 October 2008 Journal of Cardiovascular Magnetic Resonance 2008, 10(Suppl 1):A248 doi:10.1186/1532-429X-10-S1-A248.

It is proposed that in vivo time-resolved cardiac magnetic resonance elastography (MRE) enables noninvasive assessment of myocardial pressure changes. An experiment is developed that identifies variations in myocardial stiffness during the heart cycle by measuring changes in externally induced shear-wave amplitudes
