Analysis results of the two motion monitoring methods on all data sets that we acquired with the motion threshold of half of the slice thickness on SD (for SLIMM) and FD (for VVR-LM). Both methods reduced the scanning duration; but SLIMM led to much higher data quality (according to tSNR) compared to VVR-LM at the cost of only marginally longer scans (measured by the length increment rate).

Length increment rate			tSNR gain
No Monitoring	VVR-LM	SLIMM	No Monitoring	VVR-LM	SLIMM
25%	16.67%	17.86%	-	37.15%	88.04%
