## Abstract Two strategies are widely used in parallel MRI to reconstruct subsampled multicoil image data. SENSE and related methods employ explicit receiver coil spatial response estimates to reconstruct an image. In contrast, coilβbyβcoil methods such as GRAPPA leverage correlations among the acq

Abstract
In this article it is shown that GRAPPA reconstruction can be reformulated as a matrix operator, similar to ladder or propagator operators used in quantum mechanics, that shifts data in kβspace. Using this formalism, it is shown that there exists an infinitesimal GRAPPA operator that shifts data in kβspace by arbitrarily small amounts. Other desired kβspace shifts can then be accomplished through repeated applications of this infinitesimal GRAPPA operator. Implications of these ideas are described. Magn Reson Med, 2005.
