          Pencil beam navigator echo is sensitive to 
						off-resonance, and undesired excitation of subcutaneous 
						fat is caused at 3T. We modified a previously reported 
						2-point Dixon reconstruction for pencil beam navigator 
						with dual-echo acquisition. Volunteer scans were 
						performed on a 3 T imaging system with the proposed 
						method, and dark bands was reduced in the navigator 
						signal, which resulted in accurate motion detection.
