However, this approach is limited by diaphragmatic respiratory navigation, that leads to long acquisition times and degraded image quality due to residual motion artefacts. Here we evaluate a novel accelerated whole-heart framework in patients with adult CHD. This approach incorporates image-based navigation for translational and non-rigid motion-correction along with 3D patch-based denoising for efficient, free-breathing 3D whole-heart imaging. Comparison between the conventional and the research sequence shows superior diagnostic confidence and diagnostic accuracy for the proposed technique in significantly faster acquisition time (~3min proposed,~15min clinical).
