Abstract

PURPOSE: To introduce a model that describes the effects of rigid translation due to respiratory motion in displacement encoding with stimulated echoes (DENSE) and to use the model to develop a deep convolutional neural network to aid in first-order respiratory motion compensation for self-navigated free-breathing cine DENSE of the heart.
