TL;DR: Validation on a consecutive patient data cohort shows that this strategy can perform robust nonrigid registration to align inversion recovery images experiencing significant motion and lead to suppression of motion induced artifacts in the T1 map.

TL;DR: An innovative 3D radial trajectory based on a natural spiral phyllotaxis pattern is introduced, which features optimized interleaving properties that facilitate simple density compensation and high reduction of eddy current artifacts and overall improvement in image quality.

TL;DR: An innovative method based on a targeted combination of the output signals of an anterior phased‐array surface coil is implemented to efficiently suppress additional bright signal from the chest wall, spine, arms, and liver and an algorithm for the automatic segmentation of the blood pool is proposed.

TL;DR: The self-navigated coronary MR angiography sequence shows promise for coronary imaging, however, technical improvements are needed to improve image quality, especially in the more distal coronary segments.

TL;DR: Imperfections in the MRI data-acquisition process in combination with practical limitations in patient repositioning can substantially confound studies of subtle morphological changes.
