          On this project, we propose a lung imaging gating with 
						self-gating navigator extraction based on the DC signal 
						of multiple acquisitions. The Dc navigator is based on 
						the maximum values along DC the superimposed DC signals 
						of all acquisitions of the coil nearest to the 
						diaphragm. Gating is achieved without any applying any 
						threshold and the images look significantly improved 
						concerning resolution, motion correction near the 
						diaphragm structures and contrast regaining.
