Fig. 2From: Correcting versus resolving respiratory motion in free-breathing whole-heart MRA: a comparison in patients with thoracic aortic diseaseRepresentative motion-corrected (a, c) and motion-resolved (b, d) images from a 74-year-old woman (a, b) and a 59-year-old woman (c, d), both with ascending aorta dilation. Maximum intensity projection images displayed as 3-mm thick slabs are shown in the candy cane view of the aorta. Substantially improved image sharpness can be observed with motion-resolved reconstruction in both cases (b, d) along with improved signal uniformity especially in the first patient (a). Note that data from the same image acquisition are used but processed differentlyBack to article page
