A method to reconstruct images from raw MRI data, and recover an image by solving an optimization problem. Hence, the method is an image reconstruction system for image recovery contrary to similar methods, the method reconstructs all images using both joint and individual objective functions. The method includes: acquiring with the MRI system, multiple images under an influence of different contrast mechanisms, wherein the different contrast mechanisms belong to a same anatomy, solving an optimization problem with an optimization algorithm using both joint and individual objective functions simultaneously for each of multiple image contrasts or a subset of the multiple image contrasts, to reconstruct the multiple images from acquired data.

Simultaneous use of joint and individual information terms in multicontrast compressive sensing reconstruction

In the acquisition of magnetic resonance data from an examination subject according to a pulse sequence that causes radiation into the examination subject of a radiated radio frequency (RF) pulse having a frequency spectrum and a slice profile with a relationship therebetween, the examination subject is substantially simultaneously, with the radiated RF pulse, to a non-linear magnetic field that alters the relationship in the radiated RF pulse between the frequency spectrum and the slice profile. The alteration of this relationship can be used, for example, to reduce the specific absorption rate (SAR) of the examination subject during the acquisition of the magnetic resonance data.
