Clinical Study

The Transaxial Orientation Is Superior to Both the Short Axis and Horizontal Long Axis Orientations for Determining Right Ventricular Volume and Ejection Fraction Using Simpson's Method with Cardiac Magnetic Resonance

Figure 2

Additional cine SSFP slices were used for the PSSS method. These included (a) 4 long axis views through the RV, rotated around the center of the LV cavity at the midcavity short axis level, and (b) 4 stacked two-chamber right heart views. An SA reference image is shown.
