Accelerated acquisition of fMRI enables enhanced detection of neurovascular (BOLD) activity in the brain, but image reconstruction becomes challenging with high k-space undersampling: Task-evoked BOLD signals are small in magnitude, which traditional anatomical MRI reconstruction methods fail to recover, as they favor…
Purpose: T1-weighted MPRAGE remains a cornerstone of clinical anatomical imaging, yet its long acquisition times constrain routine use. Established acceleration techniques, namely Parallel Imaging (PI) and Compressed Sensing (CS), tend to introduce substantial noise and blurring when pushed to high acceleration…
Motivation: Well established clinically used parallel imaging techniques like GRAPPA and CAIPIRINHA are mostly limited to Cartesian sampling, and their extension to non-Cartesian sampling is not direct. Goal(s): We propose to extend the SPARKLING framework to ensure GRAPPA accelerated Cartesian sampling in k-space…
