Spherical Deconvolution (SD) is a model-based approach to retrieve angular fiber information from HARDI data. This work proposes to apply concepts and algorithms known in the context of Compressed Sensing, namely L1-sparsity and minimum Total Variation, to regularize the numerically ill-posed inverse problem addressed by SD. Moreover, the proposed method allows undersampling the data to substantially speed up the data acquisition by a factor of three. Improved fiber peak detection and tractography results are shown for simulated as well as for in vivo human subject data.
