Spherical Deconvolution (SD) is a model-based approach
to retrieve angular fiber information from HARDI data.
This work proposes to apply concepts and algorithms
known in the context of Compressed Sensing, namely
L1-sparsity and minimum Total Variation, to regularize
the numerically ill-posed inverse problem addressed by
SD. Moreover, the proposed method allows undersampling
the data to substantially speed up the data acquisition
by a factor of three. Improved fiber peak detection and
tractography results are shown for simulated as well as
for in vivo human subject data.
