High resolution tagging pattern in the polar coordinate system; A reconstruction based approach

The current gold standard for non-invasive assessment of the myocardium function is myocardium tissue tagging through cardiovascular magnetic resonance (CMR). Development of automatic tools for quantification of global and regional function of myocardium is currently an active research area and density of tag lines play a key role in this quantification. In this study we have introduced a novel framework to create high resolution tagged CMR images based on a modified reconstruction chain in MR systems. Results show a signification potential of this framework for real-time processing of the tagged CMR images for clinical applications.
