IRGN-TGV MATLAB Reconstruction Code

A high-quality reconstruction of accelerated MRI via joint estimation of image and coil sensitivities.

We are making available MATLAB reconstruction code for nonlinear parallel imaging that combines joint estimation of image content and coil sensitivities with variational regularization.

The algorithm provides accurate joint estimation of images and coil sensitivities through an iteratively regularized Gauss–Newton (IRGN) method. Integration of total generalized variation (TGV) penalties incorporates noise suppression and artifact removal, further enhancing the quality of reconstructed images. For more details, see the related publication.
