We developled and tested the feasibility of using parallel imaging (PI) and compressed sensing (CS) techniques to reconstruct phase-sensitive MRSI data for both hyperopoarzied 3T C-13 and 7T H-1 applications that require efficient and rapid k-space sampling. Self-calibrating techniques such as GRAPPA, SPIRiT were implemented for use in spectroscopy in addition to CS, to inintially investigate the most roubst and accurate estimation of fully sampled data. Results indicated that these methods effectively reconstructed the data.
