We proposed a new framework for reconstruction of
accelerating perfusion imaging. By prediction intensity
change of perfusion images using pre-contrast image and
adaptive weights , the sparsity of dynamic images was
strengthened, which benefits the following regular
imaging reconstruction (k-t GRAPPA, k-t PCA or k-t SLR).
The framework was tested with black blood vessel wall
imaging data. The results showed that our new framework
could result in better image reconstruction and improved
kinetic parameter fitting for all tested reconstruction
methods when acceleration factors were high.
