Abstract
Evaluation of the diagnostic performance of self-navigated whole-heart contrast-enhanced coronary MRA at 3T
Highlights
Recently, a self-navigated whole-heart coronary MRA technique has been developed to address these limitations of conventional coronary MRA techniques
Our study was to evaluate the diagnostic performance of self-navigated whole-heart coronary magnetic resonance angiography (CMRA) at 3T, using conventional invasive coronary angiography (ICA) as the reference
CMRA was performed on a 3T clinical scanner during free-breathing using an ECGgated, fat-saturated, inversion-recovery prepared spoiled gradient-echo sequence with 3D radial k-space trajectory, self-navigated motion correction, and offline nonCartesian sensitivity encoding reconstruction
Summary
Recently, a self-navigated whole-heart coronary MRA technique has been developed to address these limitations of conventional coronary MRA techniques. Our study was to evaluate the diagnostic performance of self-navigated whole-heart coronary magnetic resonance angiography (CMRA) at 3T, using conventional invasive coronary angiography (ICA) as the reference.
