Cardiovascular magnetic resonance (CMR) tagging has been established as an essential
technique for measuring regional myocardial function. It allows quantification of local …

This communication describes radiofrequency pulses capable of performing spatially
periodic excitation, inversion, and refocusing. The generation of such pulses either by …

Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) of the heart with magnetization tagging provides a
potentially useful new way to assess cardiac mechanical function, through revealing the …

Ventricular dysfunction remains a hallmark of most cardiac disease. The mouse has become
an essential model system for cardiovascular biology, and echocardiography an established …

Purpose Simultaneous multislice (SMS) acquisition enables increased temporal efficiency of
MRI. Nonetheless, MultiBand (MB) radiofrequency (RF) pulses used for SMS can cause …

Cardiac magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) on small animals is possible but remains
challenging and not well standardized. This publication aims to provide an overview of the …

The use of MR imaging and spectroscopy for studying cardiovascular disease processes in
small animals has increased tremendously over the past decade. This is the result of the …

Purpose To demonstrate magnetization transfer (MT) effects with low specific absorption rate
(SAR) on ultra‐low‐field (ULF) MRI. Methods MT imaging was implemented by using sinc …
