Abstract

PURPOSE: The purpose of this study was to investigate whether the high-precision magnetic resonance (MR) sequence using modified Fast 3D mode wheel and Precise IQ Engine (PIQE), that was collected in a wheel shape with sequential data filling in the k-space in the phase encode-slice encode plane, is feasible for breath-hold (BH) three-dimensional (3D) T1-weighted imaging of the hepatobiliary phase (HBP) of gadoxetic acid-enhanced MRI in comparison to the compressed sensing (CS) sequence using Advanced Intelligent Clear-IQ Engine (AiCE).
