Abstract

In this work, a new algorithm for canceling MRI artifact due to translational motion in image plane is described. In the previous approach, the motions in the x direction and the y direction are estimated simultaneously. By analyzing their features, each x and y directional motion is canceled by different algorithms in two steps. First, it is noticed that the x directional motion corresponds to a shift of the x directional spectrum of the MRI signal. Next, the y directional motion is canceled by using a new constraint condition. This algorithm is shown to be effective by using a phantom image with simulated motion.
