Synopsis

Under-sampled reconstruction of retrospectively gated 5D free-running acquisition is time-consuming and computationally intensive. In this work, a limited reconstruction method is proposed which provides an efficient way to compute a static cardiac volume from free-breathing, ECG-free 5D free-running CMR acquisitions. Structural similarity index measure is used to compare the limited reconstructions with the fully reconstructed image at the physiologic state of interest. The proposed limited reconstruction method achieves a SSIM of 0.9 using only 22% of the full reconstruction time and an SSIM of 0.95 using 44% of the full reconstruction.
