This study investigates free breathing motion corrected
(MOCO) phase sensitive inversion recovery imaging of
delayed myocardial enhancement. It compares this
technique to current standards methods of TrueFISP and
TurboFLASH (TFL) sequences in 45 patients. PSIR MOCO is
found to be equal or superior in image quality,
diagnostic confidence and detection and qualitative
evaluation of delayed myocardial enhancement in all
cases.
