From: Usefulness of TI-scout images in the assessment of late gadolinium enhancement in children
Late gadolinium enhancement (LGE) in a 6-month old with critical aortic and mitral stenosis. The presence and extent of LGE involving endocardium and subendocardium is appreciated better in TI (inversion time)-scout images than in phase sensitive inversion recovery (PSIR) and balanced steady state free precession (bSSFP) images. LGE of a papillary muscle (arrows) in the right ventricle is identifiable only in TI-scout images. Phase sensitive inversion recovery (PSIR) and balanced steady-state free precession (bSSFP) standard LGE images were obtained at TI of 280 ms
