Wave-CAIPI is a novel 3D imaging method with corkscrew trajectory in k-space to speed up MRI acquisition. However, the 3D data acquisitions of Wave-CAIPI are also tremendous for reconstruction calculations. In order to accelerate the reconstruction procedure, we realized a Wave-CAIPI reconstruction using a modified GPU-based conjugate gradient (CG) algorithm to reduce time cost of reconstructions. The experiments of in vivo human brain dataset show that using our GPU-based Wave-CAIPI reconstruction can achieve similar image results as the conventional CPU-based Wave-CAIPI reconstruction with less time cost than the conventional CPU-based Wave-CAIPI reconstruction.
