In this work we investigate the combination of
Model-based Accelerated RelaxomeTry by Iterative
Nonlinear Inversion (MARTINI) with Generalized
Autocalibrating Partially Parallel Acquisition (GRAPPA)
to further accelerate and improve the reconstruction
quality of T2 maps. GRAPPA is used to interpolate
missing k-space lines of two-fold subsampled blocks of
the MARTINI scheme prior to the MARTINI reconstruction.
Images from an analytical phantom and in-vivo datasets
are investigated. Resulting T2 maps of nominal 10-fold
accelerated whole brain exams (1:40 minutes scans) are
qualitatively and quantitatively compared to the
reconstruction of the fully sampled and conventional
5-fold accelerated MARTINI datasets.
