Phase Contrast MRI (PC-MRI) offers unique advantages over Doppler ultrasound for the quantification of hemodynamics. However, lengthy scan times have limited the clinical use of PC-MRI. We propose a Bayesian inference technique to accelerate PC-MRI data acquisition. The technique exploits the rich structure inherent to the data across space, time and encodings. Using 2D PC-MRI data from healthy volunteers, performance of the technique is examined over a wide range of acquisition times for prospective and retrospective under-sampling. The proposed technique provides an accurate recovery of peak and mean velocity at accelerate rates of eight or higher with fast computation.
