Asymptotic incoherence and sparsity that can be obtained
with large matrix sizes have been shown to play a key
role in sparse data sampling. Based on this, a sequence
and reconstruction prototype for high-resolution CEMRA
was implemented on a standard clinical scanner. Whole
head CEMRA with isotropic 0.7 mm resolution in just 10 s
acquisition time was performed in 10 patients. The shown
excellent image quality with 30-fold undersampling
demonstrates the potential of sparse CEMRA for faster
acquisition and/or resolution enhancement and confirms
the sparse sampling theory indicating the potential of
sparse MRI for high-resolution imaging.
