In this study, we propose to combine L 0 regularized tree-structured wavelet sparsity (TsWS) and second-order total generalized variation (TGV 2 ) to reconstruct MR image from highly undersampled k-space data. In particular, the L 0 regularized TsWS could better represent the measure of sparseness in wavelet domain. TGV 2 is capable of maintaining trade-offs between artefact suppression and tissue feature preservation. To achieve solution stability, the corresponding minimization problem is decomposed into several simpler subproblems. Each of these subproblems has a closed-form solution or can be efficiently solved using existing optimization algorithms. Experimental results have demonstrated the superior performance of our proposed method.
