Comparison between iShim- and SS-EPI-DWI in patients after CRT. iShim-DWI of b = 800 s/mm2 (a) and b = 1600 s/mm2 (b) showed higher SNR and CNR with lower signal noise compared with SS-EPI-DWI of b = 1000 s/mm2 (c). ADC map (e) of iShim-DWI showed better image quality compared with ADC map (f) of SS-EPI-DWI. T2W images (f and g) and dynamic T1W images (h and i) showed the same location of lesion (arrows) for iShim- and SS-EPI-DWI cohort, respectively
