Abstract

A new k‐space trajectory measurement technique is proposed and demonstrated. This technique measures the __k‐__space trajectory, in seconds, using only a few readout lines, using phase values of acquired MR signals. As a result of the technique's efficiency, k‐space trajectory measurement using patient data becomes possible. The utility of this techniques is demonstrated in phantom and human studies at 4.1 T.

## Abstract SENSE reconstruction suffers from an ill‐conditioning problem, which increasingly lowers the signal‐to‐noise ratio (SNR) as the reduction factor increases. Ill‐conditioning also degrades the convergence behavior of iterative conjugate gradient reconstructions for arbitrary trajectories.
