Feasibility of gray-blood late gadolinium enhancement evaluation in young patients with congenital and acquired heart disease

BackgroundLate gadolinium enhancement (LGE) sequences have become common in pediatric cardiovascular magnetic resonance (CMR) to assess for myocardial fibrosis. Bright-blood late gadolinium enhancement (BB-LGE) by conventional phase-sensitive inversion recovery (PSIR) is commonly utilized, but simil...
