Study 1: One-dimensional acceleration factors up to R=4 enable accurate steady-state free precession (SSFP) CINE magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) even though contrast-to-noise ratio (CNR) is significantly reduced.
Researchers in Germany conducted a study "to assess the impact of parallel imaging algorithms on image quality and volumetric accuracy of CINE magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) with high temporal and spatial resolution using a new 32-channel dedicated cardiac phased array coil."
"Fourteen individuals underwent steady-state free precession...
