From: Cardiovascular magnetic resonance at 3.0T: Current state of the art
Tagging images acquired in systole and mid-diastole at 3.0T and 1.5T. Note that in diastole tag lines have faded more at 1.5T than at 3.0T. The reduced fading at 3.0T is due to the prolonged T1 at 3.0T. The longer lasting tag lines may allow for better analysis of diastolic function at 3.0T. Signal-to-noise is also higher in the 3.0T images.
