Dynamic contrast-enhanced MRI is widely used in clinical
practice, due to its ability to reveal clinically
significant pathology. Faster acquisition is critical
since the acquisition has to be completed within a short
time after contrast injection. Sparse-model based
reconstruction is one of the techniques to recover high
quality image for accelerated acquisitions. Sparse
constraints correlated with the temporal dimension allow
high spatio-temporal resolution. This work proposes a
new sparse model and a reconstruction acceleration
algorithm designed for DCE MRI. Experimental results
demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed method
with superior image quality and time curves.
