Improved MR phase-contrast velocimetry using a novel nine-point balanced motion-encoding scheme with increased robustness to eddy current effects.

Phase-contrast MRI (PC-MRI) velocimetry is a noninvasive, high-resolution motion assessment tool. However, high motion sensitivity requires strong motion-encoding magnetic gradients, making phase-contrast-MRI prone to baseline shift artifacts due to the generation of eddy currents. In this study, we...
