Compressed sensing can be used to reduce 3D LGE scan time by
factor of 5 with isotropic spatial resolution. However, clinical feasibility
and overall image quality of 3D LGE with compressed sensing is still unknown. In
this study, we sought to assess the image quality of 3D LGE with isotropic
spatial resolution of 1-1.5 mm3 in 268 consecutive patients with
known or suspected cardiovascular disease and investigate the impact of patient
characteristics on overall image quality.
