Recently, a well-established parallel imaging technique
GRAPPA, has been successfully extended to radial imaging
via an improved calibration scheme that extends the
calibration to the time dimension (through-time radial
GRAPPA calibration), and has demonstrated high
acceleration factors in real-time imaging. The current
study aims to eliminate calibration scans while
preserving image quality. A novel self-calibration
method is proposed and validated in real-time cardiac
imaging in swine and normal subjects. Parameters related
to self-calibration are explored for optimal image
reconstruction of high acceleration rates (R=9-12).
