Our group recently reported a new fast radial imaging method called Highly Accelerated Projection Imaging (HAPI) with coil sensitivity encoding. We demonstrated that radial projections acquired at specific angles and at high resolution resulted in a well-conditioned matrix equation. In the previous work, the performance of HAPI was demonstrated with simulations and a simple phantom scan using an 8-channel receive array. In the study presented here, the HAPI method was tested in vivo with volunteers.
