Inconsistent motion during a cine MRI can result in
image artifacts, loss of signal-to-noise ratio, or poor
representation of the underlying physiology because the
scan does not always respond correctly or quickly, to
changes in physiology. We proposed an adaptive real-time
k-space sampling trajectory (ARKS) to respond to a
physiologic feedback signal to reduce motion effects and
ensure sampling uniformity. The most recent signals from
an ECG waveform of normal subjects and patients were
continuously matched to the previous signal history, new
radial k-space locations were determined, and these MR
signals were combined using multi-shot or single-shot
radial acquisition schemes.
