To determine the accuracy of three-dimensional k-t broad-use linear acquisition speed-up technique (k-t BLAST) accelerated magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) for the assessment of left ventricular (LV) parameters compared to segmented multiple breath-hold cine imaging. ⋯ The use of three-dimensional k-t BLAST enabled a determination of the LV parameters with high correlation compared to the SSFP sequence. EF was slightly underestimated, and LV mass was slightly overestimated.
