Abstract :
Parallel magnetic resonance imaging (pMRI) has been a very active research area recently due to its advantage of accelerated imaging speed. However, the current image reconstruction methods for pMRI suffer visible artifacts and noise effects. To improve the image quality, this paper proposes a new class of reconstruction methods based on infinite impulse response (IIR) filter bank (FB). The advantages of the proposed methods have been demonstrated by in vivo examples
