Developing faster cardiac MRI protocols

Status: Recruiting

This study is about developing and finetuning imaging techniques for cardiac MRI to offer clinical and research teams a better understanding various conditions and how best to image them. This research will consist of a one-time visit which will take place at the same time as your scheduled imaging session. We expect that participating in this research study will add approximately 20 minutes to the clinical imaging session.
