This work proposes a novel approach for performing
breath-held 3D isotropic magnetic resonance
cholangiopancreatography (MRCP) imaging by using a joint
compressed sensing and parallel imaging approach
(SPARSE-SENSE) that exploits the inherent sparsity in
the MRCP dataset to reconstruct highly undersampled
data. Using a prototype 3D-SPACE sequence, only 5% of
k-space was sampled in a 20-second breath-hold using a
2D variable-density random undersampling pattern, and
reconstructed with an iterative algorithm that enforces
joint sparsity among all coils (BH-SPARSE-SPACE).
BH-SPARSE-SPACE was approximately 15 times faster than
respiratory-triggered 3D T2-weighted acquisition
(acquisition time of approximately 5 min) without loss
in image quality.
