Multi-shot strategies have been used for improving
spatial resolution of DWI. MUSE is a multi-shot EPI
based DWI method using SENSE for self-navigating of each
shot. When many shots are used to decrease the EPI
distortion and blurring, high SENSE reduction factor
will cause inaccurate phase estimation and thus ghost
artifacts. In this work, Self-feeding MUSE is proposed
for robust phase estimation and improved MUSE
reconstruction, even if the number of shots is high.
