Figure 3

Single slice Volunteer example of 3D spoiled gradient echo (TGRE) and balanced steady state free precession (bSSFP) acquisition. Reduced subendocardial dark banding artefact was observed following reconstruction using k-t PCA (a) compared with standard k-t BLAST reconstruction (b). Using a bSSFP sequence, SNR was demonstrated to be higher (c) and with k-t PCA reconstruction showed improved temporal fidelity compared with a standard k-t BLAST sequence with (d) similar picture quality.
