Abstract
An imaging method comprises acquiring an undersampled magnetic resonance partially parallel imaging (MR-PPI) dataset using a plurality of radio frequency receive coils and reconstructing the undersampled MR-PPI dataset to generate a reconstructed magnetic resonance (MR) image. The reconstructing includes: (i) using a generalized auto-calibrating partially parallel acquisition (GRAPPA) operator or direct convolution to fill in at least some missing data of the undersampled MR-PPI dataset so as to generate an enhanced dataset; and (ii) using an algorithm other than a GRAPPA operator and other than direct convolution to reconstruct the enhanced dataset or to reconstruct the undersampled MR-PPI dataset using the enhanced dataset as an initialization dataset for an iterative reconstruction algorithm. In some embodiments the MR-PPI dataset is a non-Cartesian dataset and a GRAPPA operator for wider radial bands (GROWL) is used in the operation (i).
