ABSTRACT:
An image reconstruction technique determines linear combinations of receiver channel information that contribute the most to image SNR and quantifies the SNR loss for the reduced receiver channel set for image reconstruction to reduce the computational burden placed on the reconstruction engine of an MRI system.
