Fast interrupted steady state (FISS) sequences provide bSSFP signal contrast and concomitant fat signal suppression. In this work, 3D radial FISS was implemented as part of a respiratory self-gated free-breathing cardiac and respiratory motion-resolved 5D imaging framework. Its capabilities for fat suppression were tested and characterized at both 1.5 and 3T. Combined with a XD-GRASP reconstruction, FISS offers a versatile alternative for motion-resolved fat suppressed high-resolution whole-heart anatomical and functional cine imaging with a scan time as low as 8 minutes.
