Physiologic stress CMR perfusion provides unique
information regarding the patients exercise capacity,
hemodynamic response to exercise, and the extent of
physical activity that can reproduce the patients
symptoms during imaging. Accelerated non-Cartesian
imaging has shown promises as an alternative to
Cartesian sampling for CMR perfusion after physical
exercise due to a) its efficient k-space sampling, b)
better motion properties, and c) lower dark-rim
artifacts. In this study, we sought to compare the
performance of four non linear reconstruction methods
for accelerated CMR perfusion with radial sampling after
exercise on an MR-compatible supine bike ergometer.
