Table 1 Summary statistics (all 15 subjects) showing good agreement for encoding frequency between 0.04 and 0.10 cycles/mm. Larger biases, 95% LOA, and CoV were observed for encoding frequency of 0.02 cycles/mm.

From: Low encoding frequencies accurately quantify cardiac mechanics while minimizing phase wrapping in 2D cine DENSE with through-plane dephasing
