Cardiovascular magnetic resonance evaluation of left ventricular peak filling rate using steady-state free precession and phase contrast sequences

BACKGROUND We investigated a practical method to measure peak filling rate (PFR) as an indicator of diastolic function of the left ventricle. Ten adult volunteers underwent cine MR imaging using steady-state free precession (SSFP) and phase contrast (PC) sequences to measure PFR. Two PC image sets were acquired at the mitral valve orifice, and PFR was determined from the set with high true temp...

Normalized left ventricular systolic and diastolic function by steady state free precession cardiovascular magnetic resonance.

We used state of the art CMR to define ranges for normal left ventricular volumes and systolic/diastolic function normalized to the influence of gender, body surface area and age. New CMR normalized ranges were modeled and displayed in graphical form for clinical use, with normalization for body surface area, gender, and age. The determination of normality, or the severity of abnormality, depen...

VENTRICULAR FUNCTION Normal human left and right ventricular and left atrial dimensions using steady state free precession magnetic resonance imaging

Purpose. The aim of this project was to establish a database of left and right ventricular and left atrial dimensions in healthy volunteers using steady-state free precession cardiac magnetic resonance imaging, the clinical technique of choice, across a wide age range. Methods. 108 healthy volunteers (63 male, 45 female) underwent cardiac magnetic resonance imaging using steady-state free prece...

Reference left atrial dimensions and volumes by steady state free precession cardiovascular magnetic resonance

BACKGROUND Left atrial (LA) size is related to cardiovascular morbidity and mortality. Cardiovascular magnetic resonance (CMR) provides high quality images of the left atrium with high temporal resolution steady state free precession (SSFP) cine sequences. We used SSFP cines to define normal ranges for LA volumes and dimensions relative to gender, age and body surface area (BSA), and examine th...

Steady state free precession cardiovascular magnetic resonance: accuracy of left and right ventricular functional assessment in children

Background Cardiovascular Magnetic Resonance (CMR) is recognised as the gold standard technique for the assessment of cardiovascular function in adults. In children, image quality is dependent on compliance with motion control and breath-hold instructions. Inability to maintain repeated breath-holds in a consistent phase of respiration can result in respiratory misregistration errors. There is ...
