Previously researchers had shown the possibility to use iterative reconstruction to process PROPELLER images. In this study, an economic algorithm named image space reconstruction algorithm (ISRA) is implemented for under-sampled PROPELLER MRI. Based on generalized inverse, the algorithm is fast and inexpensive, which is useful for dynamic or volumetric imaging. We performed phantom study with under-sampled PROPELLER images, in which the image qualities were restored by ISRA.
