Abstract

PURPOSE: Cardiac MR cine imaging allows accurate and reproducible assessment of cardiac function. However, its long scan time not only limits the spatial and temporal resolutions but is challenging in patients with breath-holding difficulty or non-sinus rhythms. To reduce scan time, we propose a multi-domain convolutional neural network (MD-CNN) for fast reconstruction of highly undersampled radial cine images.
