On the dependence of the cardiac motion artifact on the breathing cycle in liver diffusion-weighted imaging

Purpose The purpose of this study was to investigate whether the cardiac motion artifact that regularly appears in diffusion-weighted imaging of the left liver lobe might be reduced by acquiring images in inspiration, when the coupling between heart and liver might be minimal. Materials and methods...
