Estimating Absolute-Phase Maps Using ESPIRiT and Virtual Conjugate Coils
PURPOSE To develop an ESPIRiT-based method to estimate coil sensitivities with image phase as a building block for efficient and robust image reconstruction with phase constraints. THEORY AND METHODS ESPIRiT is a new framework for calibration of the coil sensitivities and reconstruction in parallel magnetic resonance imaging. Applying ESPIRiT to a combined set of physical and virtual conjugat...
متن کاملVirtual coil concept for improved parallel MRI employing conjugate symmetric signals.
A new approach for utilizing conjugate k-space symmetry for improved parallel MRI performance is presented. By generating virtual coils containing conjugate symmetric k-space signals from actual coils, additional image- and coil-phase information can be incorporated into the reconstruction process for parallel acquisition techniques. In that way the reconstruction conditions are improved, resul...
متن کاملImproving parallel imaging by jointly reconstructing multi-contrast data.
PURPOSE To develop parallel imaging techniques that simultaneously exploit coil sensitivity encoding, image phase prior information, similarities across multiple images, and complementary k-space sampling for highly accelerated data acquisition. METHODS We introduce joint virtual coil (JVC)-generalized autocalibrating partially parallel acquisitions (GRAPPA) to jointly reconstruct data acquir...
متن کاملImproved parallel imaging with GRAPPA with large virtual coils arrays for time-resolved applications
Introduction: Parallel imaging [1,2] is based on the simultaneous measurement of the MR signal with multiple receiver coils. The different sensitivity profiles of the coils modulate the signal of the object in different ways. It is thus possible to accelerate the measurement by compensating a reduction of the number of phase encodings by using spatial information derived from the coils sensitiv...
متن کاملPartially parallel imaging with localized sensitivities (PILS).
In this study a novel partially parallel acquisition method is presented, which can be used to accelerate image acquisition using an RF coil array for spatial encoding. In this technique, Parallel Imaging with Localized Sensitivities (PILS), it is assumed that the individual coils in the array have localized sensitivity patterns, in that their sensitivity is restricted to a finite region of spa...
