Abstract:
Some aspects of the present disclosure relate a method for magnetic resonance imaging, which can include acquiring, by applying an imaging pulse sequence, magnetic resonance data associated with a region of interest of a subject. The imaging pulse sequence can include a plurality of RF pulses configured to generate a desired image contrast, and an outer-volume suppression (OVS) module to attenuate the signal outside the region of interest. The method can further include reconstructing, from the acquired magnetic resonance data, a plurality of reduced field of view (rFOV) magnetic resonance images corresponding to the region of interest.

Abstract:
Some aspects of the present disclosure relate image reconstruction using a variable-density spiral trajectory. An exemplary method for image reconstruction includes acquiring MR data, which includes determining a multi-level undersampling pattern based on sampling distance and probability functions, and determining a desired variable-density spiral trajectory based on the undersampling pattern. Acquiring the MR data also includes generating spiral gradient waveforms based on the desired trajectory, and tracing a variable-density spiral trajectory using the spiral gradient waveforms. After tracing, the MR data can be sub-sampled based on the variable-density spiral trajectory. The method also includes reconstructing one or more images based on the acquired MR data.
