## Purpose To assess whether black blood T2\* cardiovascular magnetic resonance is superior to conventional white blood imaging of cardiac iron in patients with thalassaemia major (TM). ## Materials and methods We performed both conventional white blood and black blood T2\* CMR sequences in 100 T

## Abstract The purpose of this study was to evaluate a freeโbreathing threeโdimensional (3D) dual inversionโrecovery (DIR) segmented __k__โspace gradientโecho (turbo field echo [TFE]) imaging sequence at 3T for the quantification of aortic vessel wall dimensions. The effect of respiratory motion s
## Background Late Gadolinium Enhancement (LGE) and T2-weighted cardiovascular magnetic resonance (CMR) provides a means to measure myocardial area at risk (AAR) and salvage. Several T2-weighted CMR sequences are in use, but there is no consensus in terms of which sequence to be the preferred. Ther
