Abstract
Background: GIQuant (Motilent, London) is an algorithm for analysing cine-MRI, using the displacement fields generated by registration of indivisdual ciné frames. It produces a summary of how much movement occurs (“motility”) for anatomical locations within a reference image [1]. Although it is used clinically for quantifying gut motility [2], it can process any ciné-MRI. In this study, we explore the hypothesis that it can be used to examine the functionality of blood vessels.

期刊介绍:
Artery Research is the official journal of the Association for Research into Arterial Structure and Physiology (ARTERY) which promotes the advancement of knowledge and dissemination of information concerning the pathophysiology, epidemiology, detection, investigation and treatment of arterial structure and function. The journal publishes original research articles, review articles, perspectives, case-studies, letters to the Editor, short communications and images. All submitted material is subject to a strict peer-review process.
