In this study, we propose a method to acquire QFlow and bSSFP cine images in a single breath-hold that eliminates the need to have these scans acquired separately; thereby overcoming the need for inter-breath hold cross-registration. The approach provides improved registration of flow fields with high-resolution anatomic cine imaging.
