This work investigates the feasibility of using arbitrary sampling patterns and GRAPPA-EPSI reconstruction to shorten the acquisition time and increase the spatial resolution of short-echo 3D-MRSI for routine clinical purposes. Fully sampled data were retrospectively under-sampled to achieve effective acceleration rates of 2, 3 and 4 using a variety of sampling patterns. The modified GRAPPA algorithm: 1) took advantage of the FID time points, 2) handled arbitrary sampling patterns, and 3) used a fast, high-resolution external calibration acquisition to estimate sensitivity maps.
