Abstract

Automatic retrospective motion correction algorithms based on iterative optimization of an image quality measure have been demonstrated in a variety of MRI acquisitions. These algorithms are computationally intensive and may require several minutes per image or more. One computational bottleneck is the need for an inverse FFT at each iteration to reconstruct and evaluate the image. We describe a method for performing the iterative search primarily in image space, greatly reducing the number of FFTs required This can significantly increase the computational speed, particularly when the evaluation is performed only on a sub-region of the image.
