Technical optimization. a: The optimal parameters consisted of an α/2 RF catalyzation, center-to-out 5/8 partial Fourier trajectory, 90° flip angle for the preparatory slice-selective RF pulse; (b) linear catalyzation; (c) out-to-center partial Fourier trajectory; (d) full Fourier acquisition; (e) no preparatory slice-selective RF pulse; (f) 180° flip angle for the preparatory slice-selective RF pulse with gating varying between one and two R-waves; (g) 90° flip angle for the preparatory slice-selective RF pulse with gating varying between one and two R-waves.
