The use of a free breathing motion corrected phase
sensitive inversion recovery (FB MOCO PSIR) sequence to
evaluate delayed enhancement (DE) in ischemic heart
disease has been validated at 1.5T. In this study 22
patients underwent FB MOCO PSIR at 3T and it was found
to be equal or superior to non motion corrected methods
in detection of both ischemic and non-ischemic DE
patterns. Initial experience suggests that it is safe
alternative to standard methods at 3T and may be
benficial in patients who are unable to breathold
effectively.
