In this work, we introduce the conception of tensor sparsity for Compressed Sensing dynamic MRI. Conventionally, the spatial and temporal information were then sparsified independently and sequentially. Therefore the spatial-temporal correlation may not be sufficiently exploited. This work applys the Tucker model based Higher-order Singular Value Decomposition (HOSVD) in the Compressed Sensing dynamic MRI framework. Instead of treating the 3D/4D data as series of 2D images, HOSVD inherits the high-dimensional data format, leading to significantly improved dMRI reconstructions compared with those well-established CS-dMRI methods. The advantages of the tensor sparsity in terms of reconstruction accuracy have been demonstrated in a given cardiac dynamic MRI study.
