Cardiac MR

Cardiac MR

This course will provide a better understanding of what a cardiac MRI scan entails for MRI technologists. The focus will be on step by step imaging for ventricular function, flow measurements, 3D whole heart imaging, MR angiography, and late gadolinium enhancement

Presenter: Navjot Gill, RTR, RTMR

Learning Objectives:
1. Prepare and set-up patients for a cardiac MRI scan
2. Prescribe sequences for ventricular function
3. Prescribe phase contrast sequences for quantitative flow measurements
4. Set up 3D whole heart and coronary imaging without contrast
5. Plan static MR angiography set-up
6. Understand the concepts of late gadolinium enhancement
