A free-breathing, fat-suppressed cardiac cine pulse
sequence is proposed, allowing multiple respiratory and
cardiac phases to be simultaneously resolved. Fat
suppression is achieved using an alternating repetition
time balanced steady-state free precession sequence. By
redesigning the slice-select rephasing gradients, a 1D
navigator readout is acquired during the unused short TR
interval and used to track respiratory motion. This
technique allows data from a single free-breathing scan
can to be displayed in a standard cardiac-cine format
for a fixed respiratory phase, or in a
respiratory-cine format for a fixed cardiac phase.
