In this work, we propose to use a novel free-running self-gated 3D CArtesian acquisition with Spiral PRofile ordering and TIny Golden angle step for Eddy Current Reduction, so called CASPR-TIGER. Data is acquired continuously under free breathing (no ECG gating, no pre-pulses interruption) using CASPR-TIGER trajectory and 4D volumes (3D+time) are reconstructed from all available data (100% respiratory scan efficiency) using a soft gating technique combined with temporal total variational (TV) constrained iterative SENSE reconstruction. Feasibility of proposed method is demonstrated in three subjects in a 3-3.6 minutes free breathing acquisition.
