Volumetric cardiac-resolved flow imaging (4D flow) can enable the assessment of flow, function, and anatomy from a single sequence. Here, 4D flow is extended to higher dimensional space as N-D flow. By resolving different dynamics such as respiration or contrast enhancement, more diagnostic information can be extracted for a single-sequence protocol. Furthermore, this potentially improves image quality and quantification accuracy. N-D flow is enabled by a compressed-sensing and parallel imaging based acquisition and reconstruction. The feasibility of this approach is demonstrated for pediatric imaging.
