Compressed Sensing for Motion Artifact Reduction# In a Nutshell a Compressed Sensing approach can be used to reduce motion artifacts in high-resolution MRI. ✦ Navigators are useful to correct motion of small amplitude. ✦ They can also be used to detect data that needs to be discarded. ✦ Discarding data provides an undersampling dataset:

Compressed Sensing for Motion Artifact Reduction# Discussion ✦ A pseudo-random acquisition often avoids getting corrupted samples that are contiguous in k-space. ✦ If the undersampled trajectory (after outlier rejection) is incoherent, Compressed Sensing allows an accurate reconstruction. ✦ However, how can the acquisition be robust against the worst case scenario (since motion is truly random) where the undersampled trajectory that we first get is not incoherent?
