Fig. 4

Signal- and contrast-to-noise ratios for 3D bSSFP and 3D IR GRE imaging. Shown are the signal- and contrast-to-noise (SNR and CNR) distributions across the left ventricle, left atrium, and pulmonary arteries (LV, LA, and PA) with bars indicating maximum and minimum values. SNR and CNR ratios were significantly higher in the left ventricle and left atrium with 3D IR GRE imaging as compared to 3D bSSFP imaging (* indicates p < 0.0001)
