ABSTRACT:
The invention relates to a method for reconstructing a fully sampled k-space data set. An undersampled GRAPPA scan of a subject is performed in a parallel MRI system using a set of receiver coil elements and corresponding receiver channels to obtain a reduced k-space data set. Autocalibration samples in k-space for each receiver channel are obtained and a GRAPPA reconstruction kernel β is calculated from the reduced k-space data set and autocalibration samples. Missing k-space lines are reconstructed to obtain a reconstructed k-space data set which together with the reduced k-space data set fully samples each channel of k-space. Each line is reconstructed using a regularized GRAPPA reconstruction if prior k-space information is available and using an unregularized GRAPPA reconstruction if no prior k-space information is available. The regularized GRAPPA reconstructions are performed preferably using a Tikhonov regularization framework.
