OBJECTIVE: 3D TSE imaging is very prone to motion artifacts, especially from uncooperative patients, because of the long scan duration. The need to repeat this time-consuming 3D acquisition in the event of large motion artifacts substantially reduces patient comfort and increases the workload of the scanner. MATERIALS AND METHODS: A new sampling strategy enables homogenized collection of k-space data for 3D TSE imaging. It is combined with Frobenius norm-based motion-detection to enable freely stopped acquisition in 3D TSE imaging whenever excessive subject motion is detected. RESULTS: The feasibility and reliability of the proposed method were demonstrated and evaluated in in-vivo experiments. CONCLUSION: It is shown that the additional overhead related to repeat scanning of the 3D TSE sequence as a result of patient motion can be substantially reduced by using the homogenized k-space sampling strategy with automatic scan completion as determined by Frobenius norm-based motion-detection.
