Abstract
Background/aim With newly available 32-channel cardiac coil, 3 tesla MRI system provides increased signal-to-noise radio (SNR), reduced imaging time and improved spatial resolution. This study sought to determine the diagnostic performance of 3T stress MRMPI with 32-channel cardiac coil in detecting clinical relevant coronary artery stenosis in comparison with invasive coronary angiography (ICA).

This study sought to determine the diagnostic performance of 3T stress magnetic resonance myocardial perfusion imaging (MRMPI) with 32-channel cardiac coil in detecting clinical relevant coronary artery stenosis in comparison with invasive coronary angiography (ICA)
Forty four patients (29 men; mean age: 61year) who were scheduled for ICA underwent stress MRMPI with 3T MRI (Achieva 3T, Philips) with a 32-channel cardiac receiver coil ( Invivo, Gainesville, FL)
