We investigated a new cardiac imaging technique that
uses k-t parallel imaging reconstruction in an
undersampled wavelet-space for real-time free-breathing
data acquisition. This technique decomposes the original
cardiac data into a series of multi-scale k-t data with
a small frequency bandwidth using real-time wavelet
decomposition filters. The bandwidth reduction allows
for the use of neighboring time frames in wavelet-space
k-t reconstruction, providing an approach to improving
SNR without a considerable loss of dynamic information.
The feasibility of this approach is demonstrated.
