Figure 5

Real-time cardiac MRI with SSFP contrast (1.5 T, 41 ms) of a patient with abnormal motions of the inferior and infero-lateral segments of the left-ventricular wall after myocardial infaction. (A) End-systolic image from a corresponding movie (see Figure 8); (B) temporal intensity profiles along the indicated reference line demonstrate impaired wall motion (arrows) in comparison to normal contractions (arrow heads). The diagram covers a period of 14 cardiac cycles (295 images =11.8 s). MRI, magnetic resonance imaging; SSFP, steady-state free precession.
