The purpose of this study was to compare the image quality of free-breathing
CS-VIBE and TWIST-VIBE in patients with lung disease. In patients who were able
to hold their breath well, the images quality of CS-VIBE and TWIST-VIBE were
comparable (P＞0.05). In patients who
failed to hold their breath during the required period, CS-VIBE allowed for
superior image quality, lesion delineation, artifact level, and diagnostic
confidence compared to TWIST-VIBE. Our study demonstrated that free-breathing
CS-VIBE is feasible for lung imaging for patients who have difficulties holding
their breath.
