  • Title: Gated magnetic resonance imaging of congenital cardiac malformations.
    Author: Fletcher BD, Jacobstein MD, Nelson AD, Riemenschneider TA, Alfidi RJ.
    Journal: Radiology; 1984 Jan; 150(1):137-40. PubMed ID: 6689753.
    Abstract:
    Magnetic resonance (MR) images of a variety of cardiac malformations in 19 patients aged 1 week to 33 years were obtained using pulse plethysmographic- or ECG-gated spin echo pulse sequences. Coronal, axial, and sagittal images displaying intracardiac structures with excellent spatial and contrast resolution were acquired during systole or diastole. It is concluded that MR will be a valuable noninvasive method of diagnosing congenital heart disease.
