Abstract
Myocardial perfusion MRI with sliding-window conjugate-gradient HYPR (SW-CG-HYPR) allows increased spatial coverage (whole left ventricular coverage), resolution, signal-to-noise ratio and reduced motion artifacts. The accuracy of this technique for detecting coronary artery disease (CAD) has not been determined in a large number of patients.

Myocardial perfusion MRI with sliding-window conjugate-gradient HYPR (SW-CG-HYPR) allows increased spatial coverage, resolution, signal-to-noise ratio and reduced motion artifacts
Forty consecutive patients (23 men and 17 women; mean age, 56 ± 15 years) with suspected coronary artery disease (CAD) who were scheduled for coronary angiography underwent myocardial adenosine stress perfusion MRI with SW-CG-HYPR at 3.0T
