Spatiotemporal-based encoding offers certain advantages
over traditional Fourier-based encoding, enabling an
alternative way of doing MRI. Two new reconstruction
approaches, maximum-likelihood estimation (MLE) and
total variation regularization (TVR), are evaluated for
spatiotemporal encoding and compared with conventional
methods (Cartesian gridded Fourier Transform and
pseudo-inverse). It is demonstrated that MLE and TVR
generate better images in terms of resolution and can
compensate for non-uniform excitation profiles as well.
