In this abstract, we demonstrate the k-t FASTER method for rank-constrained acceleration of FMRI data acquisition on prospectively under-sampled in vivo data. A 3D EPI acquisition scheme with 4.27x acceleration via pseudo-random under-sampling of the kz dimension was used to achieve whole brain sampling at 2mm isotropic resolution with TR = 975 ms without the use of coil sensitivity information. Results show high fidelity reconstructions of resting state networks in comparison to an un-accelerated 3D EPI acquisition of equal duration.
