The combined use of Motion-Sensitive (MoSe) CINE imaging for determining accurate TD setting and fast elastic image registration (FEIR) could minimizing the influence of cardiac motion-related artifacts.
Figure.2 A comparison MOLLI T1mapping with/without MoSe-CINE approach and FEIR. Both conventional MoSE-CINE visual approach with FEIR clearly improved the accuracy on T1 confidence map and the combination of MoSE-CINE visual approach with FEIR showed the best image quality.
Figure.1 MoSe-CINE images allows direct visualization of motion-independent cardiac phase timing. It shows depicted signal decrease due to cardiac motion and it pointed out when is the best timing to trigger for both systolic and diastolic timings.
