Independent validation of metric optimized gating for fetal cardiovascular phase-contrast flow imaging.

Phantom validation showed good agreement between MOG and conventionally gated PC-MR, except for cases with low velocity-to-noise ratio, which resulted in MOG misgating and underestimated peak velocities and warranted optimization of sequence parameters to individual fetal vessels. Inter- and intraobserver variability for fetal MOG PC-MR imaging were comparable to previously reported values.
