A second moment nulling on diffusion gradients combined
with ECG triggering for in-vivo myocardial diffusion
weighted imaging was investigated its clinical
feasibility. Uniform DWI signal was obtained with
b-factor = 500 s/mm2 and clinically acceptable image
quality with moderate signal non-uniformity was achieved
up to b=800 s/mm2.
