Long scan duration remains a challenge in coronary MRI. A scan-specific machine learning technique, called Robust Artificial-neural-network for k-space Interpolation (RAKI) has recently shown promising results in accelerating MRI. However, RAKI was originally designed for uniform undersampling patterns. In this study, we propose a technique, called SPIRiT-RAKI that enables RAKI with arbitrary undersampling using scan-specific convolutional neural networks to enforce self-consistency among coils. Regularization terms are also incorporated in the new formulation. Our results indicate that SPIRiT-RAKI can successfully accelerate 3D targeted coronary MRI.
