Purpose To develop an accelerated and nonrigid motion‐compensated technique for efficient isotropic 3D whole‐heart coronary magnetic resonance angiography (CMRA) with Cartesian acquisition. Methods Highly efficient whole‐heart 3D CMRA was achieved by combining image reconstruction from undersampled...
