3D real-time (RT) MRI is a useful tool in speech production research, as it enables full visualization of the dynamics of vocal tract shaping during natural speech. Limited spatial and temporal resolution, and a tradeoff between them, is however common in highly accelerated MRI. In this work, we demonstrate improved spatio-temporal resolution by using variable density randomized stack-of-spiral sampling and a constrained reconstruction. We can capture rapid movement of articulators, specifically lips and tongue body movements at both normal and rapid speech rates, yielding a substantial improvement over prior approaches in measuring fine details of human speech production.
