✦ Synopsis

Abstract

A real‐time interactive black‐blood imaging system is described. Rapid blood suppression is achieved by exciting and dephasing slabs outside the imaging slice before each imaging excitation. Sharp‐profiled radio frequency saturation pulses placed close to the imaging slice provide good blood suppression, even in views containing slow through‐plane flow. In vivo results indicate that this technique improves endocardial border definition during systole in real‐time cardiac wall‐motion studies. Phantom and animal results indicate that this technique nearly eliminates flow artifacts in real‐time intravascular studies. J. Magn. Reson. Imaging 2001;13:807–812. © 2001 Wiley‐Liss, Inc.

## Abstract A technique has been developed whereby motion can be detected in real time during the acquisition of data. This enables the implementation of an algorithm to accept or reject and reacquire data during a scan. Frames of data with motion are rejected and reacquired on the fly so that by t

## Abstract Two‐dimensional (2D) breath‐hold cine MRI is used to assess cardiac anatomy and function. However, this technique requires cooperation from the patient, and in some cases the scan planning is complicated. Isotropic nonangulated three‐dimensional (3D) cardiac MR can overcome some of thes
