Abstract
Apparatus and techniques are described herein for nuclear magnetic resonance (MR) projection imaging. Such projection imaging may be used for generating four-dimensional (4D) imaging information representative of a physiologic cycle of a subject, such as including generating two or more two-dimensional (2D) images, the 2D images comprising projection images representative of different projection angles, and the 2D images generated using imaging information obtained via nuclear magnetic resonance (MR) imaging, assigning the particular 2D images to bins at least in part using information indicative of temporal positions within the physiologic cycle corresponding to the particular 2D images, constructing three-dimensional (3D) images using the binned 2D images, and constructing the 4D imaging information, comprising aggregating the 3D images.
