Fig. 7From: Sorted Golden-step phase encoding: an improved Golden-step imaging technique for cardiac and respiratory self-gated cine cardiovascular magnetic resonance imagingComparison of LV functional metrics as measured from ECG BH and sGS FB images. As measured from the SAX stacks, the end-diastolic volume (EDV, a), end-systolic volume (ESV, b), ejection fraction (EF, c), and end-diastolic myocardial volume (EDMV, d) of the free-breathing self-gated sorted golden-step (sGS FB) images show good agreement with those of the ECG-gated breath-hold references (ECG BH), with average absolute errors of approximately 5% or less.
