4D flow displacement artifacts can significantly impact the WSS estimates and depend on the timing scheme as well as potentially the image orientation. Whereas FAST might allow correct WSS estimation for lower resolutions, ECHO is recommended especially when spatial resolutions of 1 mm and smaller are used. Users need to be aware of this nonnegligible effect, particularly when conducting inter-site studies or studies between vendors. The timing scheme should thus be explicitly mentioned in publications.
