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.
