Calibrationless MRI Reconstruction with a Plug-in Denoiser


Abstract in English

Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) is a noninvasive imaging technique that provides excellent soft-tissue contrast without using ionizing radiation. MRIs clinical application may be limited by long data acquisition time; therefore, MR image reconstruction from highly under-sampled k-space data has been an active research area. Calibrationless MRI not only enables a higher acceleration rate but also increases flexibility for sampling pattern design. To leverage non-linear machine learning priors, we pair our High-dimensional Fast Convolutional Framework (HICU) with a plug-in denoiser and demonstrate its feasibility using 2D brain data.
