Free-running, multidimensional CMR has gained increasing traction over the last decade. In multi-dimensional CMR, advances in hardware, optimized sampling patterns and reconstruction techniques have come together synergistically into a user-friendly scanning protocol. This talk aims to cover the basics of free-running techniques as well as different approaches to dimensionality. State-of-the-art techniques including 5D MRI, 5D flow MRI, MR fingerprinting, MR multitasking and their cardiac applications will also be briefly covered.
