That's me! 5 different views. 3T MRI scan. Info: Age 31, resting heart rate: 40-50 bpm, bp 122/80, long distance runner.

Music: Paul Schwartz - Cafe del Mar - Aria 2 - Cantilena

Bright or brightening areas indicate fast blood flow perpendicular to the image plane.

The movie is slower than realtime...10 fps.

  • awesome, iwould like to know the same of the music as well, thank you.

  • Paul Schwartz - Cafe del Mar - Aria 2 - 06 - Cantilena

  • at 00:50 what is the gray area on the very left?

  • Phase wrap artifact. The image 'wraps' in on itself. A common problem in MRI sequences, especially those that have to image fast, like this one.

  • This is very beautiful. Is there a reason why you had to have a cardiac MRI?

  • It was a research study I volunteered for. I work there so it took no time at all. :-)

  • @aiacospsyko In heart physiology: Cardiac Output = Stroke Volume × Heart rate.

    He is an athelete > so stronger than average heart muscle > so heart has a greater stroke volume per beat > so heart rate drops to compensate and keep equation (baseline conditions) in check.

  • You aint got a bit of fat on you!

  • @aiacospsyko He is a long distance runner.

  • Out of curiosity, is there any reason why your BPM is so low? :o

  • The beauty of evolution has created this significantly essential and unspeakably inspiring organ. Look how the surrounding veins and arteries expand as the pressure rises and contracts as it drops. Isn't it passionating?

  • @phouka123

    It is a really nice video.

    Phase wrap artifact is caused by the incorrect selection of the imaging field of view.

    If there is a body part which is outside of the imaging field of view then it is folded into the imagning plane.

    So this is the operators fault.

  • Looks like a power plant lighting up a surrounding city.

  • @ahdeath2007

    I belive its the liver

  • Beautiful music..plse could you tell me what it is?Thanks
