Abstract
In one aspect the disclosed technology relates to embodiments of a method (e.g., for automatic cine DENSE strain analysis) which includes acquiring magnetic resonance data associated with a physiological activity in an area of interest of a subject where the acquired magnetic resonance data includes one or more phase-encoded data sets. The method also includes determining, from at least the one or more phase-encoded data sets, a data set corresponding to the physiological activity in the area of interest where the reconstruction comprises performing phase unwrapping of the phase-encoded data set using region growing along multiple pathways based on phase predictions.
