Purpose: Prospectively-gated Cartesian 4D-flow (referred to as Cartesian-4Dflow) imaging suffers from long TE and intensified flow-related intravoxel-dephasing especially in preclinical ultra-high field MRI. The ultra-short-echo (UTE) 4D-flow technique can resolve the signal loss in higher-order blood flows; however, the long scan time of the high resolution UTE-4D-flow is considered as a disadvantage for preclinical imaging. To compensate for prolonged acquisitions, an accelerated k0-navigated golden-angle centerout stack-of-stars 4D-flow sequence (referred to as SoS-4D-flow) was implemented at 9.4T and the results were compared to conventional Cartesian-4D-flow mapping in-vitro and in-vivo. Methods: The study was conducted in three steps (A) In-vitro evaluation in a static phantom: to quantify the background velocity bias. (B) In-vitro evaluation in a flowing water phantom: to investigate the effects of polar undersampling (US) on the measured velocities and to compare the spatial velocity profiles between both sequences. (C) In-vivo evaluations: 24 C57BL/6 mice were measured by SoS-4D-flow (n = 14) and Cartesian-4D-flow (n = 10). The peak systolic velocity in the ascending aorta and the background velocity in the anterior chest wall were analyzed for both techniques and were compared to each other. Results: According to the in-vitro analysis, the background velocity bias was significantly lower in SoS-4D-flow than in Cartesian-4D-flow (p < 0.05). Polar US in SoS-4D-flow influenced neither the measured velocity values nor the spatial velocity profiles in comparison to Cartesian-4D-flow. The in-vivo analysis showed significantly higher diastolic velocities in Cartesian-4D-flow than in SoS-4D-flow (p < 0.05). A systemic background bias was observed in the Cartesian velocity maps which influenced their streamline directions and magnitudes. Conclusion: The results of our study showed that at 9.4T SoS-4D-flow provided higher accuracy in slow flow imaging than Cartesian-4D-flow, while the same measurement time could be achieved.
