3DWH accelerated by CS-SENSE factor of 3.5 provided visualization of all structures with no degradation in CNR or image quality while reducing scan time by approximately 25% in pediatric congenital heart disease.

Results of the blinded image quality scores (A, B) and quantitative change in CNR (C) for each CS-SENSE factor. RCA visibility and the number of visualized features was not significantly affected by CS-SENSE acceleration, while CNR was significantly decreased using a CS-SENSE factor of 6.5 (p<0.05).

Representative MPRs of the right coronary artery in 5 patients with SENSE and CS-SENSE factors of 2.5 – 6.5 with progressively shorter scan times and degraded image quality.
