Data acquisition for 3D cine velocity acquisition using navigator gating and prospective ECG gating. Note that navigator control can also be replaced by other techniques for respiration estimation such as bellows or self-gating approaches. For each time-frame, flow compensated reference data and three velocity sensitive scans are acquired in an interleaved manner. Measurements are synchronized with the ECG cycle. The resulting raw data comprise information along all 3 spatial dimension, 3 velocity directions and time in the cardiac cycle.
