4D cardiac imaging at clinical 3.0T provides accurate assessment of murine myocardial function and viability

We validate a 4D strategy tailored for 3T clinical systems to simultaneously quantify function and infarct size in wild type mice after ischemia/reperfusion, with improved spatial and temporal resolution by comparison to previous published protocols using clinical field MRI systems.
