Fastfourier transform can be performed faster

Computerscientists of MIT have achieved a significant approvement of the fastfouriertranform which was originally developed in the 1960's. The algorithm is the basis for the image acquisition using Magnetic Resonance Imaging. The new algorithm is a smart version of the original one that looses 9 out of 10 frequences of the Fourier Transfer without any loss of quality. This new development could really speed-up image processing in MRI.
