Normalized regional mean SSFP intensities obtained with CP-BOLD and standard cine acquisitions. Regional mean SSFP intensities obtained with CP-BOLD acquisitions from affected and remote regions under baseline (A) and ischemia (severe LAD stenosis, B), normalized by the regional mean intensities at end-diastole (shown with red circles) as a function of nominal percentage of cardiac cycle. Similar signal profile from standard cine, under baseline (C) and ischemia (severe LAD stenosis, D) are also shown. In all panels, green circles indicate end-systole. A line of identity (S/D =1) is also shown for reference. S/D: Systolic to Diastolic Ratio.
