We proposed a new framework for reconstruction of accelerating perfusion imaging. By prediction intensity change of perfusion images using pre-contrast image and adaptive weights , the sparsity of dynamic images was strengthened, which benefits the following regular imaging reconstruction (k-t GRAPPA, k-t PCA or k-t SLR). The framework was tested with black blood vessel wall imaging data. The results showed that our new framework could result in better image reconstruction and improved kinetic parameter fitting for all tested reconstruction methods when acceleration factors were high.
