Many pharmacokinetic models in DCE-MRI need
subject-based aortic input function (AIF). Accurate AIF
measurement requires high temporal resolution images,
which compromises the image spatial resolution. A
recently developed low-rank reconstruction technique
allows reconstruction of two sets of images, a high
temporal resolution image for quantitative analysis and
a high spatial resolution image for clinical evaluation,
at a cost of increased reconstruction time. We present a
faster method for extracting high temporal resolution
AIF from DCE-MRI data and compare it to the low-rank
reconstruction. The feasibility of this method was
demonstrated on a pediatric subject.
