Synopsis

Keywords: Image Reconstruction, Diffusion/other diffusion imaging techniques

We developed a joint image reconstruction method in both k-space and b-space to reconstruct the under-sampled diffusion-weighted images acquired at different b-values and generate the corresponding apparent diffusion coefficient map simultaneously by solving an optimization problem. This method improved SNR in both diffusion weighted images and apparent diffusion coefficient map compared with the conventional method and allows 50% k-space data undersampling that has the potential of reducing image distortion and shortening acquisition time.
