K-space QSM algorithms are computationally inexpensive
and easy to implement. But their results usually
contains streaking artifacts. Here, we introduce a
method that can be applied to an existing k-space
results to improve its accuracy and suppress streaking
artifacts by constraining the energy of the data in the
cone region to the energy of the data in non-cone
region, and enforcing structure consistency with
sophisticated prior data. This post-QSM method was
tested on a gadolinium phantom and an in vivo human
brain, and it demonstrated the suppression of streaking
artifacts as well as the recovery of cone region data.
