Porous medium 3D flow simulation of contrast media washout in cardiac MRI reflects myocardial injury.

abstract：:Myocardial pH has been shown in animal models to be a sensitive indicator of ischemia. In vivo measurement in humans using 31p magnetic resonance spectroscopy is complicated by the overlap of blood 2,3-diphosphoglycerate peaks with the P(i) peak used for pH measurement. A "saturation transfer" method combined with spa...
