Synopsis

Motion-compensated images can be created from motion-binned undersampled radial stack-of-stars data through compressed sensing and image registration. However, for long repetition times or for many partitions, the acquisition time for one radial projection with all phase-encode steps becomes too long to sample the motion via self-gating, which leads to motion artifacts. Therefore, we estimate motion from FID-navigators and perform binning on a single-readout level to gain higher spatiotemporal resolutions. Our methods are tested on a motion phantom and volunteer with gridding and motion-compensated reconstructions. Our results show accurate detection of the motion signal and reduced motion blur in reconstructions.
