A retrospectively gated reconstruction routine for 23 Na-MRI of the human heart using a density-adapted 3D projection reconstruction sequence with standard and golden angle sampling scheme is presented. Different heart phases with temporal resolutions of 0.2s (5 phases) and 0.1s (10 phases) were reconstructed by filling the k-spaces retrospectively according to an acoustic trigger signal. Golden angle sampling yields a more homogeneous distribution of projections which results in reduced image artefacts and higher SNR.
