Abstract
Magnetic resonance imaging utilizing a continuous spoiled gradient echo sequence with 3D radial trajectory and 1D self-gating for respiratory motion detection can be used to characterize respirator motion in the abdomen. The resulting image data is acquired and is retrospectively sorted into different respiratory phases based on their temporal locations within a respiratory cycle, and each phase is reconstructed via a self-calibrating conjugate gradient sensitivity encoding (CG-SENSE) program.
