Primary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Noise ScoresDuring MRI, up to 60 minutes

Three investigators will independently evaluate MRI examinations. They will assign noise scores between respiratory triggered and corresponding breath hold acquisitions. 1 = no noise artifact; 2 = minimal noise artifact, no effect on diagnostic quality; 3 = moderate noise artifact with some, but not severe, effect on diagnostic quality; 4 = severe noise artifact, images degraded but interpretable; and 5 = severe noise artifact, images nondiagnostic.

Motion Artifact ScoresDuring MRI, up to 60 minutes

Three investigators will independently evaluate MRI examinations. They will assign motion scores between respiratory triggered and corresponding breath hold acquisitions. 1 = no motion artifact; 2 = minimal motion artifact, no effect on diagnostic quality; 3 = moderate motion artifact with some, but not severe, effect on diagnostic quality; 4 = severe motion artifact, images degraded but interpretable; and 5 = extensive motion artifact, images nondiagnostic.
