- Diagnosis of cardiovascular disease requires accurate detection of ischemia, heart attack risk and dysfunctional myocardial remodelling potentially leading to heart failure. To address this challenge, we developed a novel 3D multi-contrast magnetic resonance (MR) sequence, qBOOST-T2, to enable simultaneous coronary artery stenosis and high-risk plaque detection as well as myocardial tissue characterization (inflammation) for improved risk stratification and guidance of treatment. qBOOST-T2 was patented (16/108,573), obtained the Passariello Award (https://bit.ly/2Tuonc4), led to a BHF programme grant (RG/20/1/34802) and a pre-product sequence (WIP1427) developed together with SiemensHealthineers (Dr Radhouene Neji radhouene.neji@siemens-healthineers.com) to allow widespread clinical validation
