Abstract:PurposeThis study aims to investigate the feasibility of using a commercially available clinical 0.55 T MRI scanner for comprehensive structural and functional fetal cardiac imaging.MethodsBalanced steady-state free precession (bSSFP) and phase contrast (PC) sequences were optimized by in utero studies consisting of 14 subjects for bSSFP optimization and 9 subjects for PC optimization. The signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) of the optimized sequences were investigated. Flow measurements were performed in three vessel… Show more
