Abstract:
1. A computer-implemented method for reconstruction of a magnetic resonance image, the method comprising: acquiring a first incomplete k-space data set comprising a plurality of first k-space lines spaced according to an acceleration factor and one or more calibration lines; applying, by an image data processor, a parallel imaging reconstruction technique to the first incomplete k-space data set to determine a plurality of second k-space lines not included in the first incomplete k-space data set, thereby yielding a second incomplete k-space data set which comprises the first incomplete k-space data set and the plurality of second k-space lines; and applying, by the image data processor, the parallel imaging reconstruction technique to the second incomplete k-space data set to determine a plurality of third k-space lines not included in the second incomplete k-space data set, thereby yielding a complete k-space data set which comprises the second incomplete k-space data set and the plurality of third k-space lines.
