Optimization methods for MR image reconstruction (long version)
arXiv:1903.03510
Abstract
The development of compressed sensing methods for magnetic resonance (MR) image reconstruction led to an explosion of research on models and optimization algorithms for MR imaging (MRI). Roughly 10 years after such methods first appeared in the MRI literature, the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) approved certain compressed sensing methods for commercial use, making compressed sensing a clinical success story for MRI. This review paper summarizes several key models and optimization algorithms for MR image reconstruction, including both the type of methods that have FDA approval for clinical use, as well as more recent methods being considered in the research community that use data-adaptive regularizers. Many algorithms have been devised that exploit the structure of the system model and regularizers used in MRI; this paper strives to collect such algorithms in a single survey. Many of the ideas used in optimization methods for MRI are also useful for solving other inverse problems.
