Fig. 9

RCA image of a 41-year-old man acquired via CCTA sequence (a) and four NCMRA sequences. On the image from SENSE sequence (b), the blood vessels were well depicted with sharply defined borders, and the score was 4. The distal segments of RCA from CS4 sequence (c) and CS5 sequence (d) were adequately visualized with only mildly blurred borders, and the score was 3 (blue arrow). On the image from CS6 sequence (e), the proximal and middle segments of RCA were adequately visualized (blue arrow), but the distal part was visible with moderately blurred borders; the score was 2 (red arrow)
