[Abstract] MRI is a common imaging technology in clinical practice. Due to its long scanning time, patient comfort and compliance are reduced, producing irreversible movement artifacts, resulting in impaired image quality and adverse effects on clinical diagnosis and work efficiency. Therefore, the need to shorten the MRI scanning time without affecting the image quality is very urgent. Compressed sensing (CS) technology is reconstructed and recovered by using sampling points much lower than the traditional sampling method, which can shorten the signal acquisition time. This technique can significantly shorten the scanning time, without affecting the MRI image quality, and even improve the image resolution and signal to ratio, which can well solve the above problems. Any technology requires a lot of scientific research before clinical practice to determine whether it has an impact on clinical diagnosis. In this review, we summaried the application of CS technology in craniocerebral MRI, discusses its application progress in various conventional MRI scanning sequences, and provides multi-angle information for the improvement of clinical scanning practice and CS technology and future scientific research hotspots.
