Examples of image quality ratings for conventional single-shot PSIR-bSSFP LGE and 3D HR LGE sequences. 1 poor with no clear distinction of myocardial margins; 2 fair with blurred myocardial edges; 3 good with clear myocardial margins; 4 very good with sharp myocardial margins. 3D 3-dimensional, HR high-resolution, LGE late gadolinium enhancement, PSIR phase-sensitive inversion recovery, bSSFP balanced steady-state free precession
