Abstract
Multi-contrast magnetic particle imaging allows for separating signals from different tracer materials or microenvironments
from one joint measurement, yielding multi-channel images that distinguish tracers or encode properties
such as temperature or viscosity. However, leakage artifacts enforce a noticeably longer application of iterative
standard methods like the Kaczmarz algorithm to reach satisfactory reconstruction results. A greedy randomized
version of the Kaczmarz method is adapted, showing the potential for faster recovery.
