Synopsis
4D flow MRI is an established quantitative MR imaging technique for evaluating complex blood flow patterns. However, clinical applications of standard 4D flow MRI technique is limited by long scan times associated with multidimensional imaging. Compressed sensing (CS) acceleration can significantly reduce scan time through dramatic data undersampling, but it is not clear how this undersampling impacts assessment of flow patterns in type B aortic dissection (TBAD). In this study, we investigate performance of highly accelerated CS 4D flow MRI at two different acceleration factor levels (R=7.7 and 10.2) to evaluate aortic flow dynamics in volunteers and patients with TBAD.
