Fig. 13. Hepatobiliary phase of gadoxetic acid-enhanced liver MRI in 51-year-old man.

Image obtained with compressed sensing and parallel imaging (A) shows less image noise and better overall image quality than that obtained with parallel imaging only (B). Treated hepatocellular carcinoma (arrowheads) is more visible in image obtained by using both compressed sensing and parallel imaging, than in that obtained with parallel imaging alone. Acquisition time is 15 seconds for both images and spatial resolution is same (reconstruction voxel size: 0.98 × 0.98 × 1.5 mm).
