Evaluation of CS for imaging of the SC with rosette readout. Rosette-readout images reconstructed from fully sampled k-space (603 shots) from three representative slice locations (SL 3, SL 5, and SL 7) are shown in the top row. Rosette-readout images reconstructed using CS from under-sampled k-space (201 and 100 shots, 2nd and 3rd row, respectively) show image quality similar to the ones reconstructed from fully sampled k-space and have better image quality than the images acquired with Cartesian (FLASH) readouts (bottom row).
