ESEARCH INTERESTS


The ultimate goal of my research is to develop novel algorithms to reconstruct heavily undersampled sparse imaging. The designed schemes aim to achieve a higher patio-temporal resolution, signal-to-noise ratio and coverage in multidimensional multichannel MRI. In addition to improving patients comfort and compliance while imaging under the MRI device, the newly developed schemes will allow patients with arrhythmia problems, pediatrics and obese people to breath freely without the need for any breath-hold scans. Shortening examination periods also reduces patient's stress, lowers the entire visit to the clinic and finally lowers the associated economic costs. Rapid imaging acquisitions will also allow for efficient extraction of quantitative information needed for the patients' diagnosis eg. tumor characterization and veins blockages through myocardial perfusion MRI. Current applications of interests include real-time CINE MRI and contrast changing perfusion MRI.
