Imaging changes in left ventricular (LV) volumes during the cardiac cycle and LV ejection
fraction do not provide information on regional contractility. Displacement ENcoding with …

Background We hypothesised that myocardial deformation determined with magnetic
resonance imaging (MRI) will detect myocardial scar. Methods Displacement Encoding with …

During the past eight years since the publication of the third edition—a three-volume set—of
The Biomedical Engineering Handbook, the eld of biomedical engineering has continued to …

Based on research and clinical trials, this book details the latest research in magnetic
resonance imaging (MRI) tagging technology related to heart mechanics. It covers clinical …

Measuring the 3D motion of muscular tissues, eg, the heart or the tongue, using magnetic
resonance (MR) tagging is typically carried out by interpolating the 2D motion information …

Purpose Fast cine displacement encoding with stimulated echoes (DENSE) MR has higher
spatial resolution and enables rapid postprocessing. Thus we compared the accuracy of …

In this study, a 2D multiphase magnetic resonance displacement encoding with stimulated
echoes (DENSE) imaging and analysis method was developed for direct quantification of …

Cardiac magnetic resonance imaging (CMR) has become a reference standard modality for
imaging of left ventricular (LV) structure and function and, using late gadolinium …

Background CMR allows investigating cardiac contraction, rotation and torsion non-
invasively by the use of tagging sequences. Three-dimensional tagging has been proposed …

We addressed comprehensively the performance of Shortest-Path HARP Refinement (SP-
HR), SinMod, and DENSEanalysis using 2D slices of synthetic CSPAMM and DENSE …
