We achieved well visualization of the cardiac
diffusion-weighted imaging with 2nd moment nulling
diffusion gradient. The purpose of this study was to
assess the IVIM of heart using 2nd moment nulling pulse
and high b-value. The ADC and f using 2nd moment nulling
pulse were significantly lower than using 1st moment
nulling pulse. Thus, 2nd moment nulling pulse is
insensitive to phase dispersion caused by pulsatile
motion. In conclusion, we achieved improvement of heart
IVIM.
