T2*-weighted imaging of the brain 26 weeks after subarachnoid hemorrhage, showing hemosiderin deposits as hypointense areas. [1] T 2 *-weighted imaging is an MRI sequence to quantify observable or effective T 2 (T2* or "T2-star"). In this sequence, hemorrhages and hemosiderin deposits become hypointense. [2]

English: Real-time MRI of a human heart (short-axis view) at 1.5 mm spatial resolution and 33 ms temporal resolution. The T1-weighted images were acquired with an RF-spoiled radial FLASH sequence (TR/TE = 2.2/1.4 ms, flip angle 8°, 15 spokes) at 1.5 mm resolution, 8 mm section thickness, and 33 ms acquisition time without ECG or respiratory ...
Cardiac magnetic resonance imaging (cardiac MRI, CMR), also known as cardiovascular MRI, is a magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) technology used for non-invasive assessment of the function and structure of the cardiovascular system. [2]
An MRI artifact is a visual artifact (an anomaly seen during visual representation) in magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). It is a feature appearing in an image that is not present in the original object. [1] Many different artifacts can occur during MRI, some affecting the diagnostic quality, while others may be confused with pathology.
After the scan, the continuously collected data in k-space (temporary image space) can be assigned accordingly to match-up with the timing of the heart beat and lung motion of the patient. This means that these scans are cardiac-averaged so the measured blood velocities are an average over multiple cardiac cycles.
Phase contrast MRI (PC-MRI) is used to measure flow velocities in the body. It is used mainly to measure blood flow in the heart and throughout the body. PC-MRI may be considered a method of magnetic resonance velocimetry. Since modern PC-MRI typically is time-resolved, it also may be referred to as 4-D imaging (three spatial dimensions plus ...
Although applications of real-time MRI cover a broad spectrum ranging from non-medical studies of turbulent flow [27] to the noninvasive monitoring of interventional (surgical) procedures, the most important application making use of the new capabilities is cardiovascular imaging. [1]
