XD-GRASP MATLAB Code

A reconstruction method that sorts dynamic data into motion states in accelerated MRI.

We are making available MATLAB code for XD-GRASP reconstruction.

Extra-dimensional golden-angle radial sparse parallel (XD-GRASP) reconstruction sorts dynamic, continuously acquired MRI data into multiple motion states. The technique produces clear images in the presence of ordinary motion—a development of particular significance for patients who may have trouble complying with instructions to hold their breath.

XD-GRASP reconstruction can be sorted by multiple dimensions of motion, including respiratory states, stages of the cardiac cycle, and phases of contrast enhancement. The technique makes it possible to freeze one kind of periodic motion while retaining another—for example, cardiac images can be sorted along the respiratory dimension so that the beating heart may be viewed as if unaffected by the inflations and deflations of the lungs.
