From: An extended 3D whole-heart myocardial first-pass perfusion sequence: alternate-cycle views with isotropic and high-resolution imaging

Figure 2

Example images from a single patient with DCM, showing slices of the higher in-plane resolution SAX frame (top) and 16 slices of an isotropic lower-resolution LAX frame (bottom) during the first pass. Example reformatted slices from the LAX acquisition are shown on the right to demonstrate the 3D isotropic nature of the reconstructed images. The thin myocardial wall, even during systole, demonstrates the requirement for high resolution imaging in this protocol.
