Cardiac MRI : Problems & “Solutions”
Problems :• Insufficient MR data acquisition speed for Nyquist sampling
• Difficult to account for two distinct motion processes :
Heartbeat
Approaches:
• Faster data acquisition sequences limited speed-ups:
– Hardware (gradients, field strength)– Energy deposition and peripheral nervous stimulation– MR physics
• Cardio-respiratory gating time-averaged snapshots; long
• Breathholding patient cooperation; limited time-window
• Reduced data acquisition methods (Keyhole, Rigr, Dime, etc.)
Respiration

To Model or Not to Model?To Model or Not to Model?
The truth, only the truth, and all the truth.But, a finite number of k-t space samples tells nothing at all!
Dynamic Imaging is an ill-posed inverse problem
Modeling in dynamic imaging is unavoidable
Everyone models -- whether they admit it or not

Nyquist sampling rate = 2560 lines/si.e. 0.4 msRT ≈
Conventional Imaging (TR=2ms)
Artifacts are due to temporal undersampling
Correct mathematical formulation is in the spatio-temporal domain
– Objects are functions in (r,t) domain– Sampling occurs in (k,t) domain– Sampling can be analyzed in the dual (r,f)
domain
For unique reconstruction, object I(r,t) must be restricted to a model class, M

TSS Problem
Questions :• Design of sampling schedule Ψ?
• Conditions on sampling rate ?
• Reconstruction from acquired samples ?
Properties :
• Aliasing in TSS determined not only by density of points (sampling rate) in Ψ, but also by the temporal order in which points are visited [Allebach,1987]
• Order of acquisition need not be determined by the adjacency of k-space sample locations
• Optimization of Ψ is a very difficult combinatorial problem. Need to explore 256! possible orderings for 256 sample locations.
• Solution: Unified TSS theory ( Willis & Bresler, IEEE Trans. IT,1997)

Key Idea : Consider TSS schedules that lie on a lattice
Results:
Sampling pattern design through constrained geometric packing of B, S.
Reconstruction of g(y,t) through linear filtering
Bounds on achievable TS sampling rates
In practice, sampling rate reduced by large factor compared to conventional sampling schemes

Fact : If signal g is sampled on lattice ΛA then it’s spectrum is replicated in the frequency domain on the polar lattice ΛA*
Signal g can be recovered from it’s samples iff the replicas do not overlap
Lattice ΛA* packs the spectral support B of g

TimeTime--Sequential Sampling on a Sequential Sampling on a LatticeLattice
If sample points (kn ,tn ) are chosen to lie on a lattice ΛA, in general, the time-sequential constraint will not be met.
However there may be only one sample point in S at any given sampling time instant, i.e ΛA is time-sequential w.r.t. S
Notation : ΛA ε T(S)
Result : ΛA ε T(S) if lattice spanned by D (i.e. ΛD), packs S

Discussion
• Real-time free-breathing cardiac MR imaging schemewithout ECG or respiratory gating (Aggarwal et al 2004.)
• Method robust to respiratory motion modeling inaccuracies.
• Adaptive scheme is tolerant of aperiodicity & heart rate variability (Aggarwal et al 2002, Zhao et al 2002.)
• About 5x-20x reduction in sampling rate vs. Nyquist
• Improvements in sampling rate can be traded for increased spatial/temporal resolution, 3D, or SNR/CNR
• Generalizable to higher-dimensions, alternate k-space sampling trajectories
• Complementary to fast acquisition sequences or parallel MR imaging
• Similar techniques for other dynamic imaging applications
