Compressed sensing (CS) has shown promise for highly accelerated first-pass perfusion imaging. However CS techniques suffer from temporal blurring in the presence of respiratory motion which is inevitable in clinical breath-held perfusion scans. Spiral pulse sequences have multiple advantages for myocardial perfusion imaging and their relatively incoherent aliasing pattern is advantageous for CS reconstruction. We have developed a parallel imaging and CS reconstruction technique for spiral first-pass perfusion imaging which incorporates a registration operator directly into the reconstruction model and thus outputs a series of motion-free perfusion images. We demonstrate high image quality and robustness to respiratory motion.
