A feasible way to accelerate data acquisition while
maintaining accurate CEST characterization is highly
desirable. We here postulated that compressed sensing
(CS) can be applied to reduce the acquired data by a
factor up to 5 without losing CEST quantification
accuracy. CS technique was verified with experimental
measurements from a tissue-like phantom, and the results
showed that CESTR with undersampling rate R < 5 agree
reasonably well with those of fully sampled data. In
summary, our study demonstrates the feasibility of CS
technique to accurate quantify CEST MRI.
