✦ Synopsis

Diffusion weighted (DW) 3D steady state MR (SSFP) head imaging technique using navigator echo's motion correction is presented. This new scheme enables acquisition of DW images even at regions where severe susceptibility is present. Another advantage is the moderate gradient performance requirements. DW imaging methods are sensitive to any kind of motion, thus, most of these methods might suffer from bulk motion artifacts. The common solution to avoid motion artifacts in a 2D DW SSFP acquisition is multi averaging. To avoid the time consuming multi averaging, the new scheme, described here, utilizes navigator echo's motion correction to remove respiratory bulk motion artifacts. At some brain regions, where the motion is governed by blood or CSF pulsation, the navigator motion correction fails. At these regions the correction is an interpolation of corrections from regions where the motion is particularly of the respiratory type. The combination of a 3D sequence with a navigator echo motion correction, enables acquisition of 10 DW slices within a time of 0:50-2:30 min.

## Abstract While most diffusion‐weighted imaging (DWI) is acquired using single‐shot diffusion‐weighted spin‐echo echo‐planar imaging, steady‐state DWI is an alternative method with the potential to achieve higher‐resolution images with less distortion. Steady‐state DWI is, however, best suited to
