We present a novel compressed sensing approach for super
resolution reconstruction (SRR) of diffusion MRI using
multiple anisotropic low-resolution images. The
diffusion signal in each voxel is estimated using
spherical ridgelets while the spatial correlation
between neighboring voxels is accounted for using
total-variation (TV) regularization. The experimental
result using in-vivo human brain data shows that the
proposed SRR method is capable of recovering complex
fiber orientations at a very high spatial resolution,
similar to a physically acquired gold-standard data.
Hence it has potential to be applied in clinical
settings to study mental diseases and to reduce
partial-volume effect.
