Abstract
System and method for processing magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) data of an object to perform motion correction. The method comprises estimating, for each slice of the MRI data, parameters for a state space model using a filter that predicts the location of the object for temporally adjacent slices, wherein the state space model represents motion dynamics of the object throughout acquisition of a three-dimensional volume, registering the slices to a reference image based, at least in part, on the estimated parameters, reconstructing an image based, at least in part, on the registered two-dimensional slices, and outputting the reconstructed image.
