A respiratory navigator which tracks the diaphragmatic
position is commonly used to correct the heart motion
during free breathing acquisitions. However, the
efficiency of this technique during prolonged
breath-hold has not been fully investigated. In this
study, we sought to assess the relation between the
diaphragmatic motion and the heart motion during a
prolonged breath hold performed with and without
pre-oxygenation and hyperventilation.
