    摘要: A computer implemented method for magnetic resonance imaging is provided. A 3D Fourier Transform acquisition is performed with two phase encode directions, wherein phase code locations are chosen so that a total number of phase encodes is less than a Nyquist rate, and closest distances between phase encode locations takes on a multiplicity of values. Readout signals are received through a multi-channel array of a plurality of receivers. An autocalibrating parallel imaging interpolation is performed and a noise correlation is generated. The noise correlation is used to weight a data consistency term of a compressed sensing iterative reconstruction. An image is created from the autocalibration parallel imaging using the weighted data consistency term. The image is displayed.

    摘要: A three dimensional image, in a phased array magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) system is provided. Three dimensional k-space data within an auto calibration signal (ACS) region and outside the ACS region are acquired. The k-space data within the ACS region are converted into hybrid space ACS data. Compression matrices and alignment matrices of the compression matrices for the hybrid space ACS data are found along a readout direction. Alignment matrices are multiplied to the compression matrices to achieve the properly-aligned compression matrices along the readout direction. All k-space data are converted into hybrid space. The properly-aligned compression matrices are applied to the hybrid space data to provide compressed data with fewer channels. The compressed data are used to form a three dimensional image.

A plurality of response signals, representing magnetic resonance signals arising from the precessing nuclear spins, are simultaneously obtained from the region respectively with a plurality of RF reception coils, with each response signal representing a reduced data set of a totality of all of said response signals. Calibration data points are additionally obtained for each data set. A filter is synthesized using the calibration data points. The synthesizing filter is applied to the reduced data set to obtain a plurality of coupled simultaneous linear equations with a plurality of unknowns. The plurality of coupled simultaneously linear equations with the plurality of unknowns is solved to obtain a complete data set.
