Breath-hold post contrast T1-weighted liver MRI is limited by the patient’s ability to cooperate with breathing instructions. Free-breathing radial imaging and compressed sensing-based motion-resolved image reconstruction (XD-GRASP) has been specifically developed to resolve motion artifacts over standard cartesian techniques. In this work, we apply XD-GRASP to enable free-breathing MRI in the hepatobiliary liver phase, a clinically relevant problem. We demonstrate that the image quality of free-breathing XD-GRASP is equal to or superior to the one using standard breath hold acquisitions.
