## Abstract The purpose of this work was to investigate a new magnetization preparation scheme for navigator steady‐state free precession (SSFP) 3D coronary MR angiography (MRA) that executes the navigator and fat saturation pulses in steady state after the dummy RFs in order to minimize the delay

## Abstract ## Purpose To evaluate the effect of a real‐time adaptive trigger delay on image quality to correct for heart rate variability in 3D whole‐heart coronary MR angiography (MRA). ## Materials and Methods Twelve healthy adults underwent 3D whole‐heart coronary MRA with and without the us
## Abstract While 3D thin‐slab coronary magnetic resonance angiography (MRA) has traditionally been performed using a Cartesian acquisition scheme, spiral __k__‐space data acquisition offers several potential advantages. However, these strategies have not been directly compared in the same subjects
## Abstract A new method was investigated for improving the efficiency of ECG‐gated coronary magnetic resonance angiography (CMRA) by accurate, automated tracking of the vessel motion over the cardiac cycle. Vessel tracking was implemented on a spiral gradient‐echo pulse sequence with sub‐millimete
