Abstract
A method includes automatically determining at least one gating signal based on a physiological signal from a subject being imaged by an imaging system, automatically determining, based upon prior analysis and knowledge of the imaging system's capabilities, a timing of each of a plurality of exposures within a single or multiple cycles of the physiologic signal, and performing the multiple acquisitions.
