We recently developed a motion-compensated compressed sensing (CS) method to accelerate dynamic MRI of the heart that exploits matrix low-rank sparsity within motion-tracked regions of temporal image sequences (Block LOw-rank Sparsity with Motion guidance, or BLOSM). Initial results showed that BLOSM appears promising for accelerating first-pass myocardial perfusion imaging, even when substantial respiratory motion occurs. Presently, we implemented improved motion tracking for BLOSM and compared the improved BLOSM method to other CS methods using computer-simulated motions and using first-pass perfusion datasets from patients with respiratory motion.
