FMRI data acquisition can benefit from improvements in sampling efficiency to provide richer spatial or temporal information. In this work, we propose a novel mechanism for accelerating FMRI data acquisition by leveraging the intrinsic spatio-temporal structure in FMRI datasets, namely that temporal information is shared across spatial locations. Our method, k-t FASTER (FMRI Accelerated in Space-time via Truncation of Effective Rank), is demonstrated on 4x accelerated data to recover resting state networks without using coil information. We also briefly highlight subsequent improvements using more sophisticated k-space trajectories to achieve up to 8.25x acceleration.
