20110116724 | Method for Exploiting Structure in Sparse Domain for Magnetic Resonance Image Reconstruction - A method for constructing an image includes acquiring image data in a first domain. The acquired image data is transformed from the first domain into a second domain in which the acquired image data exhibits a high degree of sparsity. An initial set of transform coefficients is approximated for transforming the image data from the second domain into a third domain in which the image may be displayed.
