Fast, three-dimensional free-breathing MR imaging of myocardial infarction: a feasibility study.

abstract：:A novel ultra-rapid gradient echo (URGE) NMR imaging technique is introduced, which is capable of continuous high resolution 3D scanning while neither subject to fast gradient switching nor excessive RF power deposition. Sampling free induction decays instead of creating spin echoes enables maintaining a workable stea...
