ABSTRACT

This study assesses the efficacy of low-field portable MR imaging in measuring ventricular volumes in the pediatric population in the hospital setting. We compared portable and standard of care MR images from the same patient. The estimated ventricular volumes had excellent agreement with a mean bias of 2.06% by Bland-Altman analysis and a correlation of 0.99. From this initial data set, our results suggest that low-field, portable MR imaging is a promising technique for imaging and quantifying ventricular volumes.
