Background:

Cardiac MR cine imaging balances resolution and breath-hold duration.
Short acquisition times are crucial for patients with limited breath-holding capacity.
Existing methods often require compromises between speed and image quality.

Purpose of the Study:

To implement and evaluate a fast cardiac cine imaging technique.
To combine Auto-SENSE parallel imaging with view-sharing for accelerated data acquisition.
To assess the feasibility of this method in healthy volunteers.

Main Methods:

A novel sequence combining Auto-SENSE parallel imaging and view-sharing was developed.
The technique was applied to healthy volunteers for cardiac cine imaging.

No pre-scan or additional k-space lines were needed for sensitivity map generation in Auto-SENSE.

Main Results:

Data acquisition was accelerated by a factor of 3.6 compared to conventional Fourier imaging.
The combined technique enabled fast cine imaging of the human heart.
Sensitivity maps for Auto-SENSE were generated efficiently without extra steps.

Conclusions:

The combination of Auto-SENSE and view-sharing provides a viable method for fast cardiac MRI.
This approach significantly reduces scan times, improving patient comfort and applicability.
Further studies can explore its utility in patient populations with breath-holding difficulties.
