Phase contrast ultrashort TE: A more reliable technique for measurement of high-velocity turbulent stenotic jets.

Accurate measurement of peak velocity is critical to the assessment of patients with stenotic valvular disease. Conventional phase contrast (PC) methods for imaging high-velocity jets in aortic stenosis are susceptible to intravoxel dephasing signal loss, which can result in unreliable measurements....
