A method for parallel magnetic resonance imaging (“pMRI”) that does not require the explicit estimation of a coil sensitivity map is provided. Individual coil images are reconstructed from undersampled scan data that is acquired with a radio frequency (RF) coil array having multiple coil channels. An inverse operator is formed from autocalibration scan (ACS) data, and is applied to the acquired scan data in order to produce reconstruction coefficients. Missing k-space lines in the undersampled scan data are synthesized by interpolating k-space lines in the acquired scan data using the reconstruction coefficients. From the acquired scan data and the synthesized missing k-space lines, individual coil images are reconstructed and combined to form an image of the subject.
