Abstract
Some aspects of the present disclosure relate to accelerated imaging using variable-density sampling and compressed sensing with parallel imaging. In one embodiment, a method includes acquiring magnetic resonance data associated with a physiological activity in an area of interest of a subject. The acquiring includes performing accelerated variable-density sampling with phase-contrast displacement encoding. The method also includes reconstructing, from the acquired magnetic resonance data, images corresponding to the physiological activity in the area of interest. The reconstructing includes performing parallel imaging and compressed sensing.
