The emerging CS-based methods have shown promising performance for accelerating DCE-MRI. In this work, the potential of k-t Iterative Support Detection (k-t ISD, a recently proposed dynamic imaging method based on CS with partial known support theory) in accelerating DCE-MRI is investigated and compared to the sliding window (SW) method. The superiority of this method to conventional CS methods has been demonstrated on cardiac cine imaging. The reconstruction results and statistical analysis indicate that k-t ISD can faithfully reconstruct the uptake curves and improve temporal resolution of DCE-MRI without compromising the spatial resolution, when a high net reduction factor is used.
