Excerpt

The SSFP sequence must attain and maintain the magnetization steady state (SS) as any interruption will entail severe imaging artifacts. In this work: (a) we propose quantitative metrics to assess the temporal stability of the myocardial signal and the blood to myocardial contrast during a cine SSFP sequence; and (b) evaluate the performance of three cine bSSFP acquisitions using these metrics: 1) the cardiac triggered (CT) unprepared SS; 2) 1 RR SS prepared breath hold (BH); and 3) min 35 oms SS prepared respiratory triggered (RT) sequence. …
