Recently, balanced SSFP methods have been employed to overcome image quality limitations associated with myocardial BOLD methods. However, the long TRs required for BOLD contrast, can lead to unwanted flow/motion artifacts, ultimately compromising image quality. %Z from 13th Annual Society of Cardiovascular Magnetic Resonance Scientific Sessions.
