## Abstract ## Purpose: To further validate the quantitative use of flow‐sensitive four‐dimensional velocity encoded cine magnetic resonance imaging (4D VEC MRI) for simultaneously acquired venous and arterial blood flow in healthy volunteers and for abnormal flow in patients with congenital heart

✦ Synopsis
Valvar stenosis causes accelerated and often complex non-laminar flow patterns that are sometimes difficult to assess quantitatively using 2D VEC MRI. We sought to evaluate the use of 4D VEC MRI for measuring flow velocities and volumes in complex flow conditions.
