Until now, the data acquired during breathing period are not used to obtain 4D cardiac images on mouse models. Consequently, the purpose of the work presented here is to evaluate the impact of breathing on the movement of the mouse's heart and to develop a method for reconstructing the cardiac self-gating signal during respiration. Finally, preliminary results of 5D image reconstruction (3D images during the heart rate and according to respiratory movement) will be shown in mice.
