Abstract
A system and method for improving image quality of periodically rotated overlapping parallel lines with enhanced reconstruction (PROPELLER) imaging include acquiring a plurality of blades of k-space data of a region of interest in a rotational manner around a center of k-space via a magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) scanner from a coil during a PROPELLER sequence, wherein each blade of the plurality of blades of k-space data includes a plurality of parallel phase encoding lines sampled in a phase encoding order. The system and method also include utilizing a deep learning-based denoising network to denoise each blade of the plurality of blades of k-space data to generate a plurality of denoised blades. The system and method further include utilizing a PROPELLER reconstruction algorithm to generate a complex image from the plurality of denoised blades.
