Compressed sensing has shown great potential in accelerating dynamic contrast enhanced MRI. Conventional Poisson-disc (PD) and Cartesian golden ratio (GR) radial schemes on the ky-kz plane of the 3D k-space are inefficient due to computation time and sub-optimal sparsity, respectively. We propose a novel randomized GR (RGR) sampling that is fast in sampling pattern generation on an MRI scanner, and flexible in temporal resolution selection in the reconstruction. We show and compare the results from PD, GR and RGR in retrospective studies using clinical DCE data. The proposed method yields promising results for highly accelerated DCE-MRI.
