Figure 2

Comparison of the standard TI scout sequence and the modified TI scout sequence in a patient with an ICD. In the standard TI scout, off-resonance due to the ICD causes severe banding artifacts throughout the heart, rendering the scout images unusable for determination of optimal TI. In the modified TI scout sequence, the artifacts are eliminated, and the optimal TI can be determined.
