CINE fetal CMR at 0.55T Reconstruction with motion-correction and cardiac gating
This repository contains code to reconstruct CINE fetal CMR at 0.55T at multiple spatial resolutions. First, real-time images are reconstructed for motion-correction and cardiac gating. Fetal cardiac CINEs are then reconstructed using the corrected data.

The code was been tested on MATLAB R2019b 9.7.0.1296695 Update 4. Some functions are incompatible with older versions. For MEX-file compilation, a compatible compiler is required (https://www.mathworks.com/support/requirements/supported-compilers.html).

A brief demo script (fetal_cardiac_demo.m) is provided with sample test data. In this script, real-times are reconstructed. Motion correction and metric optimised gating a re performed. A cine reconstruction is then performed.
