From: Breath-hold imaging of the coronary arteries using Quiescent-Interval Slice-Selective (QISS) magnetic resonance angiography: pilot study at 1.5 Tesla and 3 Tesla

Fig. 2

Examples of thin (4 to 10-mm) maximum intensity projections reconstructed from single breath hold, radial QISS (10–12 slices per breath hold, slice thickness = 2.1-mm with 20-50 % slice overlap, in-plane spatial resolution of 0.4-mm to 0.5-mm after interpolation). Images were acquired at 3 Tesla using various scan orientations. a Aorta and left coronary circulation. LM = left main; LAD = left anterior descending; D1 = first diagonal branch; D2 = second diagonal branch; LCx = left circumflex; OM = obtuse marginal branch. b Right coronary circulation. RCA = right coronary artery; AM = acute marginal branch
