Beginning with retrospectively truncated data, images were reconstructed with the enhanced MBIR framework. These were compared by a team of neuroradiologists with images obtained using standard reconstructions from non-truncated datasets. Scores were assigned for evaluation criteria including high-contrast resolution (HCR), low-contrast detectability (LCD), signal to noise ratio (SNR), artifacts, and overall preference. Nonparametric statistical test results indicate preference for MBIR in HCR, LCD, and overall preference, with comparable results for SNR and artifacts. MBIR thus facilitates PSF-EPI acceleration, enhancing clinical practicality.
