High resolution edema image is highly desired for reducing particle volume effect (PVE) on thin myocardium. In this work, we proposed a normalized segmented T2STIR-bSSFP to improve base resolution from 192 to 320 in edema imaging as well as maintain high contrast of edema to myocardium. The results show that the proposed method can reduce PVE on thin myocardium and makes edema imaging for the right ventricle myocardium being possible.
