This webinar covers what 4D flow measures\, what is required to acquire a reliable dataset\, and how the resulting measurements can be used in the assessment of patients with valve disease. \nLed by Dr Alexander Gall\, Kurian Thampi and Associate Professor Pankaj Garg\, the session brings together the underlying principles\, the practicalities of acquisition and the clinical application within a single hour. Topics will include: \n\n1\nThe principles of time-resolved three-directional velocity encoding\, and how 4D flow differs from conventional 2D phase contrast imaging \n2\nSequence selection\, VENC optimisation\, acceleration and scan time\, and the practical trade-offs involved in fitting 4D flow into a clinical protocol \n3\nQuality assurance and post-processing\, including retrospective valve tracking \n4\nAssessment and quantification of aortic and mitral valve disease \n\nDirect quantification of regurgitant volume\, retrospective valve tracking and the ability to interrogate flow at any point within the acquired volume make 4D flow particularly well suited to valve disease\, where conventional measures are often indirect and prone to inconsistency. \n\nDr Alexander Gall \n Cardiology Specialty Registrar and Advanced Cardiac Imaging Research Fellow\, 4D Lab\, Norwich Medical School\, University of East Anglia / Norfolk and Norwich University Hospital. Dr Alexander Gall is a Cardiology Specialty Registrar\, currently out of programme for research\, and an Advanced Cardiac Imaging Research Fellow in the 4D Lab\, Norwich Medical School\, University of East Anglia.

His published and ongoing work spans 4D flow assessment of intracardiac flow\, the technical and post-processing factors that influence 4D flow derived haemodynamic measurements\, and the application of the technique to valve disease. He passed the EACVI CMR written examination in 2025 and is working towards EACVI Level 3 CMR accreditation. He was awarded an oral presentation competition prize at ESC Congress\, and serves as a Junior Reviewer on the editorial board of European Heart Journal – Case Reports within the imaging domain. \nDr Pankaj Garg \nClinical Scientist in Cardiovascular Medicine at the University of East Anglia\, Norwich\, UK and an Honorary Consultant Cardiologist at Norfolk and Norwich University Hospital.
