MRI (Magnetic Resonance Imaging)
Context: Instruction in the User Manual.
Instructions for use
Correct data acquisition is of crucial importance for a correct analysis.
Image artifacts can influence contour detection.
Make sure acquisitions are made by experts in cardiac MR and are performed according to the guidelines
What are "artifacts" as in above?
Thank you so much!

image misrepresentation
In signal processing in general, artifacts or artefacts are errors caused by the equipment or methodology used to process the signal.
In the context of MRI, it's any type of misrepresentation, caused by any source (including the patient, the signal processing, or the hardware, etc.), within the image that is not present within the original.

image defects
A defect in an image (such as a digital photograph) that appears as a result of the technology and methods used to create and process the image
… can produce a very good picture, but there will be some loss of detail and some color artifacts such as adjacent colors bleeding into each other.

I do think you could have looked this up yourself.

: "defect" is too simplistic. This is about MRI

MRI meaning
https://radiopaedia.org/articles/radiological-image-artifact
Most artifacts in radiology refer to something seen on an image that are not present in reality but appear due to a quirk of the modality itself. Artifact is also used to describe findings that are due to things outside the patient that may obscure or distort the image, e.g. clothing, external cardiac monitor leads, body parts of carer, etc.
The commonest artifact seen in radiology is image noise, which is inherent to every modality and technique, and can be mitigated but never eliminated.
As an interpreter of imaging it is important to be aware of the main artifacts of the examination being reviewed to avoid issuing an erroneous report. However at times artifacts are welcome because they may be advantageous to the interpreter, making anatomy/pathology easier to appreciate, e.g. posterior acoustic shadowing of gallstones on ultrasound or susceptibility artifact of haemosiderin on MRI....
