Free-running 5D whole-heart MRI using a Gadolinium enhanced Fast-Interrupted Steady-State sequence to evaluate congenital heart disease
Motivation: There is a need for simplified and time-efficient dynamic whole-heart imaging in the evaluation of congenital heart disease patients. Goal(s): To demonstrate the feasibility of Gadolinium enhanced 5D FISS CMR and compare it to established 2D and 3D CMR methods in a cohort of congenital heart disease patients. Approach: Ejection fraction and vessel sharpness measurements derived from established 2D and 3D CMR are quantitatively compared to those obtained from the proposed 5D sequence. Results: 5D FISS CMR is feasible for the evaluation of cardiac function and anatomy building towards an easy-to-use and time-efficient method for evaluating congenital heart disease. Impact: Free-running 5D whole-heart MRI using a Gadolinium enhanced FISS sequence enables both measurements of cardiac function and evaluation of morphology in patients with congenital heart disease with a fixed six-minute scan time.
