Since using all the calibration signals from images with different contrasts potentially provides more information of coil sensitivities, we propose to use multi-contrast information to enhance JSENSE. The same coil sensitivities as well as multiple contrast images are jointly reconstructed in the new model. Preliminary results demonstrated that the multi-contrast JSENSE algorithm with more accurate initialization results in images with improved quality, while costs no more computational time than original JSENSE algorithm
