PURPOSE: To introduce a true three-dimensional (3D) tagging technique for the assessment of myocardial tissue motion. MATERIALS AND METHODS: To generate a 3D tagging grid, a complementary spatial modulation of magnetization (CSPAMM) was applied in three spatial directions. Imaging was performed using a conventional fast 3D gradient-echo sequence. For automatic analysis of the 3D-CSPAMM data set, evaluation software, based on a 3D extension of the HARP technique, was used. RESULTS: Successful application of the 3D-CSPAMM technique in healthy subjects allowed the accurate determination of quantitative 3D motion patterns in the human heart. CONCLUSION: 3D-CSPAMM may contribute to the quantification of the local 3D myocardial motion pattern throughout the cardiac cycle. Copyright 2002 Wiley-Liss, Inc.
