✦ Synopsis
We have worked on multi-dimensional magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) data acquisition and related image reconstruction methods that aim at reducing the MRI scan time. To achieve this scan-time reduction we have combined the approach of 'increasing the speed' of k -space acquisition with that of 'deliberately omitting' acquisition of k -space trajectories (sparse sampling). Today we have a whole range of (sparse) sampling distributions and related reconstruction methods. In the context of a European Union Training and Mobility of Researchers project we have decided to integrate all methods into one coordinating software system. This system meets the requirements that it is highly structured in an object-oriented manner using the Unified Modeling Language and the Java programming environment, that it uses the client Á/server approach, that it allows multi-client communication sessions with facilities for sharing data and that it is a true distributed computing system with guaranteed reliability using core activities of the Java Jini package.
