## Abstract A first‐pass myocardial perfusion sequence for mouse cardiac MRI is presented. A segmented ECG‐triggered acquisition combined with parallel imaging acceleration was used to capture the first pass of a Gd‐DTPA bolus through the mouse heart with a temporal resolution of 300–400 msec. The

A new approach to myocardial first-pass perfusion imaging is presented; this technique, called SSFPP, is based on 3D SSFP sequence whereby magnetization is maintained in constant steady-state, while data acquisition is gated to diastole. This results in high SNR and CNR, and other characteristics th
## Abstract ## Purpose To determine the regime of linear contrast enhancement in human first‐pass perfusion cardiovascular magnetic resonance (CMR) imaging to improve accuracy in myocardial perfusion quantification. ## Materials and Methods A total of 10 healthy subjects were studied on a clinic
## Abstract Although spiral trajectories have multiple attractive features such as their isotropic resolution, acquisition efficiency, and robustness to motion, there has been limited application of these techniques to first‐pass perfusion imaging because of potential off‐resonance and inconsistent
## Abstract Accurate and fast quantification of myocardial blood flow (MBF) with MR first‐pass perfusion imaging techniques on a pixel‐by‐pixel basis remains difficult due to relatively long calculation times and noise‐sensitive algorithms. In this study, Zierler's central volume principle was used
