Table 1 Largest ROI mean offset (cm/s) within 50 mm of Isocentre, for aortic slice, MPA slice (HF phase-encoding) and MPA slice (LR phase-encoding). The four rows per slice are from the four sites using each scanner type. The column order is not specified, i.e. scanner types are not identified. (< ± 0.3 cm/s stdev total error as described above)

From: Evidence across CMR sites and systems of background velocity offset errors requiring correction before accurate measurement of regurgitant and shunt flow
