Abstract

Background The polar coordinate system adapts best to the morphology of the heart. The recently developed sequences that allow the CMR Tagging in the circular and radial directions facilitate the calculation and presentation of the myocardium mechanics. Development of the corresponding processing methods is required to further enhance the utilization of these sequences. Here we suggest a processing method based on the harmonic phase approach to obtain the high-resolution motion in polar coordinate system.

Highlights

  • The polar coordinate system adapts best to the morphology of the heart

  • We suggest a processing method based on the harmonic phase approach to obtain the high-resolution motion in polar coordinate system

  • Using a half circular bandpass filtering of K-Space, the magnitude and phase images of the fundamental frequency were reconstructed in the circular images
