Abstract

A method for timeโ€resolved imaging that provides a flexible tradeโ€off between imaging time and temporal resolution is presented. It is based on a view order selection technique that automatically segments the acquired raw data into appropriate temporal frames. When used with cardiac monitoring and phaseโ€contrast imaging, data similar to that obtained with a conventional gated phaseโ€contrast sequence are acquired rapidly. For many applications, the temporal resolution can be reduced enough to permit imaging within a breathโ€hold interval, while still allowing accurate timeโ€averaged flow quantitation. This is a general technique that can be implemented within a variety of pulse sequences and can resolve other motion cycles, including the respiratory cycle.

The use of surface coils in magnetic resonance imaging offers significant improvements in the signal-to-noise ratio over volume coils for many applications. However, the inhomogeneous reception profile of surface coils hampers their usefulness by introducing significant nonuniformities or intensity
