This work investigates the possibility of using FID
navigator signals to improve the performance of a
recently proposed autofocusing-based retrospective
motion correction technique. FID navigators were
incorporated into an MPRAGE sequence and 3 subjects were
scanned at 3T while performing head movements. The
acquired data was retrospectively corrected for motion
by exploiting the FID signals to constrain the unknown
motion parameters. The results were compared against the
reconstructions obtained from a non-FID-guided version
of the algorithm, demonstrating that the use of FID
navigators for retrospective motion correction leads to
improvement in both image quality and computation time.
