A retrospectively gated reconstruction routine for
23
Na-MRI
of the human heart using a density-adapted 3D projection
reconstruction sequence with standard and golden angle
sampling scheme is presented. Different heart phases
with temporal resolutions of 0.2s (5 phases) and 0.1s
(10 phases) were reconstructed by filling the k-spaces
retrospectively according to an acoustic trigger signal.
Golden angle sampling yields a more homogeneous
distribution of projections which results in reduced
image artefacts and higher SNR.
