Increasing acquisition efficiency is always a challenge
in high-resolution diffusion tensor imaging (DTI), which
has low SNR and is sensitive to image artifacts. In this
work, a parallel imaging and compressed sensing combined
reconstruction framework is proposed, which features
multi-shot motion error correction, parallel imaging
kernel calibration and anisotropic sparsity model
utilizing inter-image correlation tailored for
high-resolution DTI. The proposed method, titled as
AS-SPIRiT, is implemented based on multi-shot variable
density spiral, and evaluated in in-vivo brain DTI
experiment. Compared with traditional parallel imaging
methods and other sparsity models, AS-SPIRiT provides
better preserved image quality and more accurate DTI
parameters.
