Compressed sensing (CS) is a newly developed method which can reduce the scan time of MR imaging. A new method based on coherence assumption and nonlocal operator (CORNOL) is proposed. We implemented CORNOL instead of Total-Variation (TV) on the reconstruction of CS. Thus only intrastructure intensity changes are penalized while the interstructure intensity changes are preserved. The result demonstrates both noise penalization and detail structure preserving character. Phantom simulation and in-vivo data shows the validity and advantages of our method.
