Pencil beam navigator echo is sensitive to
off-resonance, and undesired excitation of subcutaneous
fat is caused at 3T. We modified a previously reported
2-point Dixon reconstruction for pencil beam navigator
with dual-echo acquisition. Volunteer scans were
performed on a 3 T imaging system with the proposed
method, and dark bands was reduced in the navigator
signal, which resulted in accurate motion detection.
