📦 monalisa_tutorial_ui

User-interface-based educational tutorial pipeline for MONALISA non-Cartesian MRI reconstruction.

This repository provides a structured, step-by-step workflow for:

• Coil sensitivity estimation
• Data preparation (Mitosius wrapping)
• Gridded reconstruction
• Optional compressed sensing reconstruction

It is designed for:

• 🎓 New lab members
• 🧠 Researchers learning MONALISA
• 🧪 Educational demonstrations
• 🔬 Rapid reconstruction testing

🚀 Quick Start

1️⃣ Install Dependencies

• MONALISA
• Pulseq
• mapVBVD

Example:

addpath(genpath('/path/to/monalisa'));
addpath(genpath('/path/to/pulseq'));
addpath(genpath('/path/to/mapVBVD'));

2️⃣ Run the Educational Pipeline

run main_script.m

The script will guide you through:

1.	Optional RMS data inspection

2.	Coil sensitivity estimation

3.	Saving coil maps

4.	Mitosius preparation

5.	Final reconstruction (gridded or CS)
