A novel 3D-PITA method is proposed for volumetric auto-calibrated parallel imaging. The method introduces a transition region between the ACS region and the highly reduced outer region [3], where the sampling pattern is specially designed to have a lower reduction factor than the outer region. We then perform a two-step calibration/reconstruction, one step with nonlinear GRAPPA and the other with GRAPPA, to obtain the final full k-space data. Experimental results demonstrate the proposed method is able to achieve high reconstruction quality at reduction factors higher than 5 and is superior to the conventional 3D GRAPPA.
