Abstract

OBJECTIVE: The total examination time can be reduced if high-quality two-dimensional (2D) cine images can be collected post-contrast to minimize non-scanning time prior to late gadolinium-enhanced imaging. This study aimed to assess the equivalency of the pre-and post-contrast performance of 2D deep learning-based highly accelerated cardiac cine (DL cine) imaging by evaluating the image quality and the quantification of biventricular volumes and function in the clinical setting.
