Accelerating the acquisition of T2 mapping via sparse
sampling has drawn considerable attention. However, due
to non-ideal conditions in practical settings (i.e.,
insufficient sparsity/rank and coherent sampling),
errors occur in the T2-weighted images and the
subsequent relaxation map especially with high reduction
factors and noisy measurements. We address this issue by
integrating the prior information (i.e., exponential
functions) on the temporal signals into the image
reconstruction step. This is in contrast to the
conventional wisdom where the image reconstruction and
parameter mapping are performed independently. The
proposed method was demonstrated with an in-vivo brain
dataset and shows promising results.
