Comparison of Delayed Contrast-Enhanced Magnetic Resonance Imaging of Myocardial Viability at 1.5 and 3 Tesla

Imaging of myocardial viability using the delayed enhancement technique currently provides high image contrast between infarcted and normal tissue with the aid of a magnetization prepared fast gradient echo pulse sequence following the administration of an extracellular contrast agent. However, ther...
