4D radial coronary artery imaging within a single breath-hold: cine angiography with phase-sensitive fat suppression (CAPS).

abstract：PURPOSE:The ultimate intrinsic signal-to-noise ratio (UISNR) is normally calculated using electrodynamic simulations with a complete basis of modes. Here, we provide an exact solution for the UISNR at the center of a dielectric sphere and assess how accurately this solution approximates UISNR away from the center. MET...
