Multiband (MB) technique is combined with multitasking for increased spatial
coverage of the heart without prolonging scan time. Two different MB multitasking implementations were developed and compared with the conventional multitasking
technique.

Typical volunteer T1 cine maps. Slice 1 and 2 are acquired and reconstructed
simultaneously in MB multitasking, while separately in single-slice
multitasking.
