Blood-pool MRI assessment of myocardial microvascular reactivity

Blood-pool MRI assessment of myocardial microvascular reactivity

PurposeThe ability to non-invasively image myocardial microvascular dilation and constriction is essential to assessing intact function and dysfunction. Yet, conventional measurements based on blood oxygenation are not specific to changes in blood volume. The purpose of this study was to extend to t...
