We demonstrate the feasibility of compressed sensing for
Cartesian MR flow imaging (CS Flow) with inline
reconstruction to enable real-time and high-resolution
3-directional flow imaging. Single-slice phase contrast
datasets were acquired using a real-time protocol
(R=11.2) and a segmented flow protocol with
3-directional flow encoding with (R=7.7). Real-time
results correlated with a segmented reference scan and
peak velocity values were in good agreement, flow
volumes were overestimated. 3-directional CS Flow could
be visualized as velocity magnitude and vectors. CS Flow
can enable real-time flow quantification in-cooperative
and arrhythmic patients and provides high-resolution
vector-encoded flow imaging in a short breathhold.
