Phase contrast (PC) MRI is a useful tool for assessing hemodynamic, but suffers from low data acquisition efficiency. In this study we compared real-time PC MRI between Cartesian and Radial undersampling trajectories. Our results show that both real-time MRI pulse sequences yield velocity measurements that agree well with those produced by reference breath-hold PC MRI pulse sequence. Compared with real-time MRI with Cartesian sampling, Radial sampling produced images with fewer artifacts. This study demonstrates feasibility of real-time PC MRI using radial k-space sampling and constrained reconstruction.
