Abstract
A method is presented for rapid blood flow quantitation. It combines m ultiple shot echo planar imaging principles with phase contrast veloci ty encoding gradients. Preliminary validation experiments performed on a flow phantom indicate a good correlation with actual flow values. M easurements of pulsatile flow in the ascending and descending aorta, a cquired in just 4 s, with a temporal resolution of 50 ms, are demonstr ated.
