A technique for free-breathing 2D cardiac cine MRI is
proposed. Respiratory motion is monitored in real time
using the respiratory bellows signal, and the
diminishing variance algorithm is used to reacquire
motion-corrupted data. The proposed technique is
demonstrated in free-breathing volunteer scans,
acquiring a stack of short-axis images covering the
entire left ventricle.
