## Abstract (arXiv)

Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) is a powerful, non-invasive diagnostic tool; however, its clinical applicability is constrained by prolonged acquisition times. Whilst present deep learning-based approaches have demonstrated potential in expediting MRI processes, these methods usually rely on known sampling patterns and exhibit limited generalisability to novel patterns. In the paper, we propose a sampling-pattern-agnostic MRI reconstruction method via a diffusion model through adaptive consistency enforcement. Our approach effectively reconstructs high-fidelity images with varied under-sampled acquisitions, generalising across contrasts and acceleration factors regardless of sampling trajectories. We train and validate across all contrasts in the MICCAI 2024 Cardiac MRI Reconstruction Challenge (CMRxRecon) dataset for the ``Random sampling CMR reconstruction'' task. Evaluation results indicate that our proposed method significantly outperforms baseline methods.
