Cine DENSE (Displacement Encoding with Stimulated Echoes) provides accurate and high-resolution displacement and strain imaging of the heart; however, image acquisition times are relatively long and, due to properties inherent to stimulated echoes, signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) is relatively low. In this study, using variable-density spiral acquisitions with golden angle rotations and BLOSM-SENSE reconstruction, accelerated cine DENSE images with two-dimensional in-plane displacement encoding can be acquired in a single breathhold, as short as 8 heartbeats. This represents a significant improvement over prior protocols that used two 14-heartbeats breathholds to acquire equivalent datasets.
