Impact of retrospectively lowering SNR on the image quality. A prospectively downsampled (R=3) segmented cine dataset was collected on a 1.5T scanner from a healthy volunteer. Acquisition parameters include: matrix size: 256×192; FOV: 380×285 mm2; TE/TR: 1.47/2.9 ms; slice thickness 8 mm; flip angle: 82°; bandwidth: 714 Hz/pixel; temporal resolution 47 ms; sampling pattern: VISTA; bSSFP-based prospectively triggered segmented sequence. Complex Gaussian noise was then added to simulate data at 1T, 0.5T and 0.35T field strengths. The image recovery was performed using SCoRe.
