Figure 2

Blood myocardium CNR obtained with GRE and SSP techniques. CNR decreases significantly with increasing slab thickness. Note that the GRE has a lower baseline contrast that SSFP, though at 10 cm slab thickness, SSFP has lost significantly more contrast. GRE loses contrast linearly up ~6.5 cm slab thicknesses, after which contrast reaches a minimum.
