Free-Breathing Stack-of-Stars Look-Locker T1-mapping with Whole Liver Coverage
Motivation: Many patients cannot hold their breath as required on standard protocols for abdominal imagingGoal(s): We develop a new new free-breathing Look-Locker T1-mapping method with whole liver coverage. Approach: The new free-breathing Look-Locker T1-mapping method employs a pilot tone signal for detecting the respiratory state. This signal is used to reconstruct motion-corrected T1-weighted images, which are used to calculate T1-maps. Results: Robust T1-maps are obtained covering the whole liver obtained from 6 min free-breathing scan. Impact: A new free-breathing Look-Locker T1-mapping method with whole liver coverage has been developed for patients who are not able to hold their breath as required in standard protocols.
