In this work, we present a new methodology for an abbreviated dynamic contrast enhanced (DCE) MRI breast screening protocol. The methodology relays on a novel dynamic reconstruction scheme, local low-rank, applied to breast MR imaging for the first time. Our work provides the framework for a high resolution (0.83 mm isotropic), ultra-fast (10 second volumetric frame rate) imaging technology to deliver detailed information of the early enhancement phase of breast lesions, preserving diagnostic accuracy while shortening exam times. We demonstrate the feasibility of the proposed approach.
