Value CMR: Towards a Comprehensive, Rapid, Cost-Effective Cardiovascular Magnetic Resonance Imaging

Figure 2

3D cine acquisition in the short-axis direction. Stacks of short-axis slices covering the heart from base (top left) to apex (bottom right), obtained in the same subject as in Figure 1 using accelerated 3D-cine acquisition with 2 overlapping short-axis (SA) slabs (a) and one thicker SA slab (b). Scan time is 48 s and 20 s for the 2-slabs and 1-slab acquisitions, respectively.
