Real-time cine MRI is a necessary cardiac MRI pulse sequence for patients with reduced breath-hold capacity and/or arrhythmia. Currently, dynamic parallel imaging methods, such as TSENSE and TGRAPPA, can be used to achieve an acceleration rate (R) of 2-3, which typically yields relatively low spatial and temporal resolution. We propose to use a joint acceleration technique that combines compressed sensing (CS) and parallel imaging (PI) to exploit joint sparsity for randomly undersampled multicoil data. This study describes highly-accelerated (R>4) real-time cine MRI using the joint CS-PI technology and shows encouraging results using this technology.
