Demonstration of value of optimizing ECG triggering for cardiovascular magnetic resonance in patients with congenital heart disease

<p>Abstract</p> <p>Background</p> <p>Optimal ECG triggering is of paramount importance for correct blood flow quantification during cardiovascular magnetic resonance (CMR). However, optimal ECG triggering and therefore blood flow quantification is impaired in many patie...
