Pettigrew,4 Jose´ Millet-Roig,2 and W. Thomas Dixon5 A novel technique called “Noquist” is introduced for the accel- important limiting factor in cardiac imaging is thus the eration of dynamic cardiac magnetic resonance imaging breath-hold duration that the subject can sustain. This is (CMRI). With the use of this technique, a more sparsely sampled typically 10–25 s, depending on the patient’s physical dynamic image sequence is reconstructed correctly, without condition. Despite the growing availability of acquisition Nyquist foldover artifact. Unlike most other reduced field-of- accelerators, such as parallel imaging methods (e.g., simul- view (rFOV) methods, Noquist does not rely on data substitution taneous acquisition of spatial harmonics (SMASH) (1), or temporal interpolation to reconstruct the dynamic image sequence. The proposed method reduces acquisition time in sensitivity encoding (SENSE) (2), and generalized auto- dynamic MRI scans by eliminating the data redundancy asso- calibrating partially parallel acquisitions (GRAPPA) (3)) ciated with static regions in the dynamic scene. A reduction of on systems with phased-array RF coils, and high-speed imaging time is achieved by a fraction asymptotically equal to TrueFISP steady-state acquisition techniques (4), image the static fraction of the FOV, by omitting acquisition of an quality problems are still encountered that a
