Background: Conventional MR acceleration techniques, such as compressed sensing, parallel imaging, and half Fourier often face limitations, including noise amplification, reduced signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) and increased susceptibility to artifacts, which can compromise image quality, especially in high-speed acquisitions. Artificial intelligence (AI)-assisted compressed sensing (ACS) has emerged as a novel approach that combines the conventional techniques with advanced AI algorithms. The objective of this study was to examine the imaging quality of the ACS approach by qualitative and quantitative analysis for brain, spine, kidney, liver, and knee MR imaging, as well as compare the performance of this method with conventional (non-ACS) MR imaging.
