4D Heart imaging
As we know that MRI has been
recognized as a powerful tool for cardiovascular imaging because of its unique
potential to measure blood flow cardiac wall motion and tissue properties
jointly . However, many cardio vascular MRI in real time or 4D cardiovascular
MRI without cardiac and respiratory gating or triggering remains an important
technological goal of the MRI cardiovascular research community. By studying
some problems new imaging Technology developed by researchers at the University
of Wisconsin can not only capture the heart in 3D showing blood flow,
direction, and velocity, but can also show them relating to a fourth dimension
- time. The procedure is fast, and requires no invasive procedures, no contrast
agent or general anesthesia and could have significant consequences for
patients at risk of cardiac problems.
Besides this I
have some innovations I.e This capability should enables simultaneous imaging
of cardiac motion, respiratory motion and first pass myocardial perfusion. This
in turn allows multiple cardiac assessments including measurement of ejection
fraction cardiac output and myocardial
blood flows in single experiment.
I believe that after this features are included in 4D heart
cardiovascular imaging then it can open many applications of cardiovascular
imaging and have great significant impact on the field.
