Area of Science:

  • Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI)
  • Medical Imaging Reconstruction

Background:

  • Parallel imaging (PI) accelerates MRI acquisition but often requires calibration data.
  • Existing autocalibrating (SPIRiT) and calibrationless (SAKE) methods have limitations in image quality and artifact reduction.

Purpose of the Study:

  • Introduce and evaluate a novel subspace-based iterative reconstruction method, Self-supporting Tailored k-space Estimation for Parallel imaging reconstruction (STEP).
  • Compare STEP's performance against SPIRiT and SAKE for MRI reconstruction.

Main Methods:

  • STEP utilizes k-space partition and basis selection for spatially variant signal subspace promotion.
  • A self-supporting structured low rank model enforces locality, sparsity, and rank deficiency.
  • Reconstruction is achieved via a constrained optimization problem solved iteratively.

Main Results:

  • STEP demonstrates superior image quality and detail preservation on retrospectively undersampled multichannel Cartesian data.
  • STEP provides more accurate reconstructions with reduced aliasing artifacts and noise amplification compared to SPIRiT and SAKE.
  • STEP integrates compressed sensing with arbitrary sampling trajectories.

Conclusions:

  • k-space partition and basis selection enhance parallel imaging reconstruction performance.
  • STEP offers improved image reconstruction with or without calibration signals.
