Synopsis

Cardiovascular magnetic resonance (CMR) T2-weighted dark blood (T2W-DB) imaging has great diagnostic value for detecting myocardial edema. In this study, a novel deep learning based acceleration framework (AI-assisted Compressed Sensing, ACS) was applied to a single-shot T2W-DB sequence for single breath-hold whole heart (9 slices) imaging. Both quantitative and qualitative assessment of the images suggested that the ACS T2-DB sequence offered better image quality with greatly reduced total scan time and the simplified scanning workflow.
