Motion artifact suppression is a major challenge in abdominal magnetic resonance imaging, and particularly in quantitative imaging. Here, a new technique is introduced, where 3D high-resolution abdominal T 1 maps are obtained during free-breathing by combining inversion-recovery Look-Locker method, respiratory self-navigation, and 3D golden angle through-time spiral GRAPPA reconstruction. T 1 values from different tissues are in excellent agreement with breath-hold data and literature. This technique may be beneficial for those who cannot hold their breath during MR acquisition or need a larger spatial coverage or higher spatial resolution.
