Short axis views - General information. The short axis views are acquired by rotating the transducer from the parasternal long axis position 60-90 degrees clockwise. The index/dot/light of the transducer then points towards the left shoulder of the patient. There are various levels of short axis views, which can be gathered in series to scan ...
بیشترThe heart is tagged using 1-1 SPAMM at end-diastole with tag surfaces parallel to a short-axis imaging plane. Two or more images are acquired such that the images have different phase encodings in a direction orthogonal to the image plane. A dense map of the longitudinal strain can be computed from these images using a simple, fast computation.

بیشترWe generally use short-axis images to measure compacted and noncompacted segments in the midcavity and basal segments. When myocardial trabeculations are located principally at the apex, short-axis images may not be perpendicular to the LV long axis and can produce the morphologic appearance of prominent trabeculations that mimic LVNC.

بیشترAbstract: Anisotropic multi-slice Cardiac Magnetic Resonance (CMR) Images are conventionally acquired in patient-specific short-axis (SAX) orientation. In specific cardiovascular diseases that affect right ventricular (RV) morphology, acquisitions in standard axial (AX) orientation are preferred by some investigators, due to potential superiority in RV volume measurement for treatment planning.
بیشترThe short and long-axis slices were then registered to each other at end-diastole and then at end-systole with the following procedure. First, the short-axis images were registered to each other by fitting a quadratic polynomial to the combined endocardial and epicardial contour centroids. While

بیشترThe short axis of the heart is the plane perpendicular to the long axis of the heart, considered to be the axis that aligns the base of the heart and the apex.
