Pulsatile blood flow through the cavities of the heart and great vessels is time-varying and
multidirectional. Access to all regions, phases and directions of cardiovascular flows has …

Aortic pathologies are numerous, presenting manifestations are varied, and aortic diseases
present to many clinical services, including primary physicians, emergency department …

Traditionally, magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) of flow using phase contrast (PC) methods
is accomplished using methods that resolve single‐directional flow in two spatial …

Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) has become an important tool for the clinical evaluation
of patients with cardiovascular disease. Since its introduction in the late 1980s, 2 …

Background Phase contrast cardiovascular magnetic resonance (CMR) is able to measure
all three directional components of the velocities of blood flow relative to the three spatial …

In-plane phase-contrast (PC) imaging is now a routine component of MRI of regional blood
flow in the heart and great vessels. In-plane PC MRI provides a volumetric, isotropic, time …

Blood flow patterns are closely linked to the morphology and function of the cardiovascular
system. These patterns reflect the exceptional adaptability of the cardiovascular system to …

Purpose To present a theoretical basis for noninvasively characterizing in vivo fluid‐
mechanical energy losses and to apply it in a pilot study of patients known to express …

Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) has become an important tool for the clinical evaluation
of patients with cardiac and vascular diseases. Since its introduction in the late 1980s …

Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) techniques provide non-invasive and non-ionising
methods for the highly accurate anatomical depiction of the heart and vessels throughout the …
