In this work multiplexed sensitivity encoding is
combined with the continuous prospective motion
correction of a segmented diffusion weighted acquisition
to achieve high resolution DTI. The results show that
prospective motion correction during DWI substantially
improved image quality in the case of subject motion. In
fact, our approach resulted in a considerable image
quality improvement even without intentional subject
motion. In conclusion, continuous prospective motion
correction allows for high resolution multi-shot DWI
both in the presence of substantial and also microscopic
head motion.
