Magnetic field gradients near air-tissue interfaces cause signal dropout, hampering BOLD fMRI. To make the data less prone to T2* susceptibility artifacts, it is desirable to reduce the readout duration. This can be achieved by undersampling k-space, which has been investigated for dynamic MRI and recently proposed for fMRI. In this work, we demonstrate a new field-corrected imaging approach to sparsely sampled fMRI, coined functional LOw Rank Approximations (fLORA). Specifically, we exploit partial separability (PS)-induced low rank structure of fMRI data via group-sparse regularization, combined with magnetic field inhomogeneity compensation.
