We investigated transmural (endocardialepicardial)
differences of LV motion by means of velocities measured
with high resolution tissue phase mapping (TPM). The
results show that some transmural differences are lost
by simple averaging of multiple respiratory states, but
are preserved with applied motion correction. In
conclusion, high resolution TPM allows detailed analysis
of LV motion. Motion correction enables improved SNR
while preserving image sharpness and velocity
information.
