DTI allows to obtain quantitative measurements of tissue
microstructure that no other technique can reveal. A
simple and well defined signal model exists for DTI,
which makes it an ideal candidate for model-based
methods. The goal of this study is to introduce a new
combination of compressed sensing and model based
reconstruction where the sparsifying transform is
evaluated directly in the domain of the diffusion
tensor. Experimental results for truly accelerated
in-vivo imaging are shown for both brain an MSK
applications which demonstrate excellent performance of
the model based approach.
