  • "The optimal reconstruction phase varied between patients, and this was directly related to the heart rate. For patients with a heart rate of 70 beats per minute, the reconstruction phase centered at 75% of the R-R interval had the significantly least motion artifact. Conversely the optimal reconstruction phase for patients with heart rates above 70 beat per minute was centered at 50% of the R-R interval."
