1 From the BHF Cardiac MRI Unit (S.P., T.R.J., T.N.B., M.U.S.) and Department of Medical Physics (J.P.R.), Leeds General Infirmary, Great George St, Rm 170, D-floor, Jubilee Building, Leeds LS1 3EX, England. Received August 27, 2001; revision requested October 17; revision received December 10; accepted January 29, 2002. S.P. supported by a British Heart Foundation Junior Research Fellowship.

A comprehensive magnetic resonance (MR) imaging protocol for assessment of coronary artery disease (CAD) is presented. The protocol includes multiphase gradient-echo cine MR imaging for assessment of cardiac function, first-pass myocardial perfusion imaging at rest and during adenosine stress, MR imaging with delayed contrast enhancement for assessment of myocardial viability, and coronary MR angiography with a three-dimensional respiratory navigator-gated technique. In 10 patients, the protocol was completed in 61.5 minutes ± 5.5 and yielded high image quality and diagnostic accuracy. This protocol may provide an integrated noninvasive screening tool for patients with CAD.
