Many of cardiac diseases are resulted in myocardium
contractility alteration. Tagging, a labeling method of
myocardium in cardiovascular MRI, is the preferred
choice for assessment of left ventricular (LV)
mechanical parameters. In this study, using circular
shaped tags, we proposed method with high clinical
impact to inline generation of density map in order to
quantify radial strain of LV. The method successfully
was implemented and tested on the 1.5T and 3T clinical
MR scanner.
