This work applies the novel XD-GRASP technique for
continuous free-breathing motion-sorted golden-angle
radial MRI to the examination of patients undergoing
liver MRI using the hepatobiliary contrast agent
Gd-EOB-DTPA, which is known to result in suboptimal
quality of the arterial phase. Continuously acquired
k-space data were sorted into contrast-enhancement and
respiratory phases, and reconstructed using a compressed
sensing approach that exploits sparsity along the
dynamic dimensions. Our results demonstrate that
arterial-phase XD-GRASP reconstructions had superior
image quality compared to conventional GRASP, as well as
to standard breath-hold examinations. XD-GRASP has the
potential to improve imaging in patients undergoing
Gd-EOB-DTPA enhanced MRI.
