Compressed sensing (CS) has shown promise for highly
accelerated first-pass perfusion imaging. However CS
techniques suffer from temporal blurring in the presence
of respiratory motion which is inevitable in clinical
breath-held perfusion scans. Spiral pulse sequences have
multiple advantages for myocardial perfusion imaging and
their relatively incoherent aliasing pattern is
advantageous for CS reconstruction. We have developed a
parallel imaging and CS reconstruction technique for
spiral first-pass perfusion imaging which incorporates a
registration operator directly into the reconstruction
model and thus outputs a series of motion-free perfusion
images. We demonstrate high image quality and robustness
to respiratory motion.
