FIG. 1.

Image acquisition mode comparison for cine mode (a) and T2-weighted HASTE/SSFSE MR sequential mode, which includes ascending, interleaved, and descending submodes (b). In (a), the top row shows the respiratory signal recorded and the bottom row shows the image acquisition locations. In (b), the top row demonstrates the respiratory signal recorded, and the second, third, and bottom rows demonstrate image acquisition locations for the ascending mode, interleaved mode, and descending mode, respectively.
