High speed and temperature accuracy are required in MR
thermometry. While parallel imaging can speed up the
acquisition, the corresponding reconstruction usually
requires significant computation, especially when large
coil arrays are used. This work evaluates the
feasibility of direct virtual coil (DVC) for MR
thermometry on bone tumor thermotherapy, in which
parallel imaging and coil combination are combined into
one step to reduce reconstruction time. It has been
demonstrated that DVC can achieve similar temperature
mapping accuracy compared to traditional parallel
imaging method under different acceleration factors
while it can be about twice faster.
