Transcatheter cardiovascular interventions increasingly rely on advanced imaging. X-ray
fluoroscopy provides excellent visualization of catheters and devices, but poor visualization …

Despite technical advances, respiratory motion remains a major impediment in a substantial
amount of patients undergoing coronary magnetic resonance angiography (CMRA) …

Electrocardiograph (ECG) triggered or gated magnetic resonance methods are used in
many imaging applications. Therefore, a reliable trigger signal derived from to the R‐wave of …

A generally applicable method for almost complete suppression of signal artifacts on
electrophysiological signals caused by B0‐gradient switching (gradient noise) is presented …

The recording of the electrocardiogram (ECG) during magnetic resonance imaging (MRI)
acquisition is of great interest and importance. Firstly, MRI acquisition is a relatively slow …

Localized 1H‐MR spectroscopy is sensitive to motion and has mostly been applied to the
brain. For the human heart, cardiac and respiratory motion lead to displacements on the …

PURPOSE: To assess the clinical value of a magnetic resonance (MR) coronary
angiography strategy involving a small targeted volume to image one coronary segment in a …

A system was developed for real-time electrocardiogram (ECG) analysis and artifact
correction during magnetic resonance (MR) scanning, to improve patient monitoring and …

Purpose Numerous MRI applications require data from external devices. Such devices are
often independent of the MRI system, so synchronizing these data with the MRI data is often …

Electrocardiogram (ECG) acquisition is still a challenge as gradient artefacts superimposed
on the electrophysiological signal can only be partially removed. The signal shape of theses …
