Conventional 2D cine requires long scan time and is not
reformattable. Breathhold 3D cine suffers from reduced
contrast and increased SSFP banding artifacts. This work
developed a novel technique for free-breathing
whole-heart cine imaging. Our results show that this new
method is more robust than breathhold 3D cine and
enables 3D imaging with isotropic resolution and thus
offline reformatting.
