Excerpt
Navigator gating is commonly used to minimize respiratory motion in free-breathing whole-heart coronary MRA [1]. However, lengthy and unpredictable acquisition times remain a drawback. Respiratory self-navigation (SN) [2-3], conversely, enables 100% scan efficiency, but performs motion correction over a broad range of respiratory displacements, which can result in image artifacts. Here, we propose an alternative respiratory motion-resolved approach based on 3D radial phyllotaxis sampling, respiratory motion sorting and sparse reconstruction. …
