Comparison of four respiratory motion correction methods for improved cardiovascular imaging outcomes.
Key Points
MNav-CoS showed comparable performance to other techniques, with similar diffusion tensor metrics in the study.
Diffusion metrics for MNav-CoS were MD: 1.48±0.10 μm/ms², FA: 0.39±0.07, while other techniques yielded similar results.
Observational analysis across healthy volunteers revealed that free-breathing acquisitions with slice tracking were three times shorter than breath-holds.
These respiratory motion compensation techniques may enhance clinical utility, providing time-saving benefits for prolonged imaging sessions.
