Dynamic contrast-enhanced MRI is widely used in clinical practice, due to its ability to reveal clinically significant pathology. Faster acquisition is critical since the acquisition has to be completed within a short time after contrast injection. Sparse-model based reconstruction is one of the techniques to recover high quality image for accelerated acquisitions. Sparse constraints correlated with the temporal dimension allow high spatio-temporal resolution. This work proposes a new sparse model and a reconstruction acceleration algorithm designed for DCE MRI. Experimental results demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed method with superior image quality and time curves.
