Examples of PDIP-SOS CMR (right) in comparison to CTA (left) for: (a) 66-year-old female imaged at 1.5 Tesla showing mild vascular calcifications (Group 1), (b) 80-year-old male imaged at 1.5 Tesla showing moderate vascular calcifications (Group 2), and (c) 68-year-old female imaged at 3 Tesla showing severe vascular calcifications (Group 3). Vascular calcifications (arrows) appear dark with PDIP-CMR (presented as thin minimum intensity projections), and bright with CTA (presented as thin maximum intensity projections). There is excellent correlation between CMR and CTA irrespective of lesion severity
