Abstract
A method for motion correction in multicoil imaging applications, involving both data collection and reconstruction, is presented. The floating navigator method, which acquires a readout line off center in the phase-encoding direction, is expanded to detect translation/rotation and inconsistent motion. This is done by comparing floating navigator data with a reference k-space region surrounding the floating navigator line, using a correlation measure. The technique of generalized autocalibrating partially parallel acquisition is further developed to correct for a fully sampled, motion-corrupted dataset. The flexibility of generalized autocalibrating partially parallel acquisition kernels is exploited by extrapolating readout lines to fill in missing "pie slices" of k-space caused by rotational motion and regenerating full k-space data from multiple interleaved datasets, facilitating subsequent rigid-body motion correction or proper weighting of inconsistent data (e.g., with through-plane and nonrigid motion). Phantom and in vivo imaging experiments with turbo spin-echo sequence demonstrate the correction of severe motion artifacts.
