A novel 3D whole-heart sequence for simultaneous bright- and black-blood coronary angiography (named BOOST) was recently introduced. BOOST alternates the acquisition of two differently magnetization-prepared bright-blood volumes for coronary lumen visualization and from which respiratory motion information can be independently extracted. These datasets are subsequently combined in a PSIR-like reconstruction to obtain a complementary co-registered black-blood volume for thrombus/haemorrhage visualization. BOOST acquisitions, however, require prolonged acquisition times. Here, we accelerate BOOST acquisition by exploiting a variable density Cartesian trajectory that generates incoherent undersampling artefacts. Furthermore, non-rigid respiratory motion correction incorporated in the undersampled reconstruction is exploited for improved sharpness.
