CSPAMM myocardial tagging with an interleaved spiral sequence enabled high-quality grid-tagged images with a tagline distance as low as 4 mm in a single breath-hold in 10 healthy subjects.
Does CSPAMM myocardial tagging with an interleaved spiral imaging sequence provide high-quality images and tag persistence in healthy adults?
CSPAMM myocardial tagging with an interleaved spiral imaging sequence allows for high-quality, high-temporal-resolution imaging with tag persistence throughout the cardiac cycle in a single breath-hold.
In the present study, complementary spatial modulation of magnetization (CSPAMM) myocardial tagging was extended with an interleaved spiral imaging sequence. The use of a spiral sequence enables the acquisition of grid-tagged images with a tagline distance as low as 4 mm in a single breath-hold. Alternatively, a high temporal resolution of 77 frames per second was obtained with 8-mm grid spacing. Ten healthy adult subjects were studied. With this new approach, high-quality images can be obtained and the tags persist throughout the entire cardiac cycle.
Ryf et al. (Mon,) conducted a other in Healthy (n=10). CSPAMM myocardial tagging with an interleaved spiral imaging sequence was evaluated on Image quality and tag persistence. CSPAMM myocardial tagging with an interleaved spiral sequence enabled high-quality grid-tagged images with a tagline distance as low as 4 mm in a single breath-hold in 10 healthy subjects.
