We have demonstrated a fully self-gated 4D whole-heart imaging technique with high isotropic spatial resolution and near 100% imaging efficiency through respiratory motion correction and retrospective cardiac gating. No ECG or diaphragm navigator is needed. The 4D visualization allows one to determine the precise quiescent period retrospectively. Future efforts will be focused on optimizing of the sequence and reconstruction parameters, as well as comparing the dual-mode reconstruction against existing coronary MRA and cine protocols.
