Abstract

BACKGROUND: Cardiac balanced steady state free precession (bSSFP) cine imaging suffers from banding and flow artifacts induced by off-resonance. The work aimed to develop a twofold phase cycling sequence with a neural network-based reconstruction (2P-SSFP+Network) for a joint suppression of banding and flow artifacts in cardiac cine imaging.
