Results from image-quality assessment in 10 patients scored in consensus by 2 expert readers. (A) Normalized frequency distribution of image-quality scores for each sequence (P = .08). (B) Distribution of perceived SNR scores for each sequence. Perceived SNR is higher for the SMS-CS sequence than for the conventional sequence (P = .04). (C) Normalized frequency distribution of the number of diagnostic segments using each sequence. Number of diagnostic segments was higher using the SMS-CS sequence (P = .03). *A significant difference between conventional and SMS-CS results (P < .05)
