  • Time resolved spin labeled MRI cineangiography
    Patent number: 8441257
    Abstract: A sequence of magnetic resonance images of the beating heart depicts the flow of blood through the heart chambers. Blood appears bright and background tissues are darkened by acquiring MR data following a preparatory pulse sequence in which spin magnetization throughout the field of view is inverted using a non-selective RF inversion pulse and spin magnetization in a selected pool of blood moving into the heart is re-inverted by a selective RF inversion pulse.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: April 27, 2010
    Date of Patent: May 14, 2013
    Assignee: NorthShore University HealthSystem
    Inventors: Federico E. Mordini, Ioannis Koktzoglou, Robert R. Edelman
