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.
