Figure 1

ECG-gated segmented LGE images of a dog with RF lesions acquired with the (left) standard and (middle) wideband IR pulses at 3T. Unlike standard LGE MRI which exhibited image artifacts induced by the device, wideband LGE MRI did not exhibit significant image artifacts and enabled complete visualization of RF lesions (arrows). Moreover, the wideband LGE image correlated well with (right) gross pathology, whereas the standard LGE image did not.
