Synopsis

Keywords: Machine Learning/Artificial Intelligence, Cardiovascular, WorkflowWe propose an Artificial Intelligence-based single-click cardiac MR exam to support technicians and increase standardization and repeatability of cardiac exams, which we evaluate in a clinical setting with 44 patients. Automations include setting of the isocenter position, slice planning in standard and cardiac orientations, adjustment volume and inversion time. Clinical sequences that can be acquired without manual planning include CINE, STIR, T1 mapping, 3D MRA and LGE. 91% (n=40) of the acquisitions could be completed without manual operator intervention, with the majority (n=3) of failed cases caused by abnormal heart geometries leading to inadequate slice planning.
