Random undersampling is an important component used with
Parallel Imaging (PI) and Compressed Sensing (CS) and
their combination (PI-CS) for fast acquisition.
Optimized pseudo-random trajectory results in better
reconstruction yet the optimization is computational
costly. Lately, we proposed an efficient scheme for 1D
random undersampling optimization using stochastic
method and reference k-space. Here we extended and
improved the scheme to optimize the 2D Cartesian
undersampling for both PI and CS using Nonlinear Grappa
Operator and Coherence based objective function. In-vivo
experiments demonstrated greater performance improvement
for reconstruction using PI-CS. The scheme is also
applicable for non-Cartesian undersampling.
