Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) is now increasingly being used for fast imaging applications such as real-time cardiac imaging, functional brain imaging, contrast enhanced MRI, etc. Imaging speed in MRI is mainly limited by different imaging parameters selected by the pulse sequences, the subject being imaged and the RF hardware system in operation. New pulse sequences have been developed in order to decrease the imaging time by a faster k-space scan. However, they may not be fast enough to facilitate imaging in real time. Parallel MRI (pMRI), a technique initially used for improving image SNR, has emerged as an effective complementary approach to reduce image scan-time. Five methods, viz., SENSE [Pruesmann, 1999], PILS [Griswold, 2000], SMASH [Sodickson, 1997], GRAPPA [Griswold, 2002] and SPACERIP [Kyriakos, 2000]; developed in the past decade have been studied, simulated and compared in this research. Because of the dependence of the parallel imaging methods on numerous factors such as receiver coil configuration, k-space subsampling factor, k-space coverage in the imaging environment, there is a critical need to find the method giving the best results under certain imaging conditions. The tools developed in this research help the selection of the optimal method for parallel imaging depending on a particular imaging environment and scanning parameters. Simulations on real MR phased-array data show that SENSE and GRAPPA provide better image reconstructions when compared to the remaining techniques.

Each section will start with an explanation of the basic techniques for mapping the tissue property in question, including a description of the challenges that arise when using these basic approaches. For properties which can be measured in multiple ways, each of these basic methods will be described in separate chapters. Following the basics, a chapter in each section presents more advanced and recently proposed techniques for quantitative tissue property mapping, with a concluding chapter on clinical applications. The reader will learn: The basic physics behind tissue property mapping How to implement basic pulse sequences for the quantitative measurement of tissue properties The strengths and limitations to the basic and more rapid methods for mapping the magnetic relaxation properties T1, T2, and T2* The pros and cons for different approaches to mapping perfusion The methods of Diffusion-weighted imaging and how this approach can be used to generate diffusion tensor maps and more complex representations of diffusion How flow, magneto-electric tissue property, fat fraction, exchange, elastography, and temperature mapping are performed How fast imaging approaches including parallel imaging, compressed sensing, and Magnetic Resonance Fingerprinting can be used to accelerate or improve tissue property mapping schemes How tissue property mapping is used clinically in different organs Structured to cater for MRI researchers and graduate students with a wide variety of backgrounds Explains basic methods for quantitatively measuring tissue properties with MRI - including T1, T2, perfusion, diffusion, fat and iron fraction, elastography, flow, susceptibility - enabling the implementation of pulse sequences to perform measurements Shows the limitations of the techniques and explains the challenges to the clinical adoption of these traditional methods, presenting the latest research in rapid quantitative imaging which has the possibility to tackle these challenges Each section contains a chapter explaining the basics of novel ideas for quantitative mapping, such as compressed sensing and Magnetic Resonance Fingerprinting-based approaches

Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) is a powerful diagnostic medical imaging technique that provides very high spatial resolution. By manipulating the signal evolution through careful imaging sequence design, MRI can generate a wide range of soft-tissue contrast unique to individual application. However, imaging speed remains an issue for many applications. In order to increase scan output without compromising the image quality, the data acquisition and image reconstruction methods need to be designed to fit each application to achieve maximum efficiency. This dissertation concerns several application-tailored accelerated imaging methods through improved sequence design, efficient k-space traverse, as well as tailored image reconstruction algorithm, all together aiming to exploit the full potential of data acquisition and image reconstruction in each application. The first application is ferumoxtyol-enhanced 4D multi-phase cardiovascular MRI on pediatric patients with congenital heart disease. By taking advantage of the high signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) results from contrast enhancement, we introduced two methods to improve the scan efficiency with maintained clinical utility: one with reduced scan time and one with improved temporal resolution. The first method used prospective Poisson-disc under-sampling in combination with graphics processing unit accelerated parallel imaging and compressed sensing combined reconstruction algorithm to reduce scan time by approximately 50% while maintaining highly comparable image quality to un-accelerated acquisition in a clinically practical reconstruction time. The second method utilized a motion weighted reconstruction technique to increase temporal resolution of acquired data, and thus permits improved cardiac functional assessment. Compared with existing acceleration method, the proposed method has nearly three times lower computation burden and six times faster reconstruction speed, all with equal image quality. The second application is noncontrast-enhanced 4D intracranial MR angiography with arterial spin labeling (ASL). Considering the inherently low SNR of ASL signal, we proposed to sample k-space with the efficient golden-angle stack-of-stars trajectory and reconstruct images using compressed sensing with magnitude subtraction as regularization. The acquisition and reconstruction strategy in combination produces images with detailed vascular structures and clean background. At the same time, it allows a reduced temporal blurring delineation of the fine distal arteries when compared with the conventional k-space weighted image contrast (KWIC) reconstruction. Stands upon on this, we further developed an improved stack-of-stars radial sampling strategy for reducing streaking artifacts in general volumetric MRI. By rotating the radial spokes in a golden angle manner along the partition-encoding direction, the aliasing pattern due to under-sampling is modified, resulting in improved image quality for gridding and more advanced reconstruction methods. The third application is low-latency real-time imaging. To achieve sufficient frame rate, real-time MRI typically requires significant k-space under-sampling to accelerate the data acquisition. At the same time, many real-time application, such as interventional MRI, requires user interaction or decision making based on image feedback. Therefore, low-latency on-the-fly reconstruction is highly desirable. We proposed a parallel imaging and convolutional neural network combined image reconstruction framework for low-latency and high quality reconstruction. This is achieved by compacting gradient descent steps resolved from conventional parallel imaging reconstruction as network layers and interleaved with convolutional layers in a general convolutional neural network. Once all parameters of the network are determined during the off-line training process, it can be applied to unseen data with less than 100ms reconstruction time per frame, while more than 1s is usually needed for conventional parallel imaging and compressed sensing combined reconstruction.
