Random undersampling is an important component used with Parallel Imaging (PI) and Compressed Sensing (CS) and their combination (PI-CS) for fast acquisition. Optimized pseudo-random trajectory results in better reconstruction yet the optimization is computational costly. Lately, we proposed an efficient scheme for 1D random undersampling optimization using stochastic method and reference k-space. Here we extended and improved the scheme to optimize the 2D Cartesian undersampling for both PI and CS using Nonlinear Grappa Operator and Coherence based objective function. In-vivo experiments demonstrated greater performance improvement for reconstruction using PI-CS. The scheme is also applicable for non-Cartesian undersampling.
