Low-rank (subspace) imaging with temporal navigation and
sparse sampling of (k, t)-space has previously been used
to accelerate several cardiac imaging applications. Here
we describe a more efficient self-navigated pulse
sequence to acquire both navigator and sparse data in a
single TR, doubling imaging speed to approach 100 frames
per second. We demonstrate the assessment of myocardial
inflammation in rats through self-navigated T2*-weighted
imaging of immune cells labeled with micron-sized
paramagnetic iron oxide (MPIO) particles.
