System and Method for Quantifying T1, T2 and Resonance Frequency Using Rosette Trajectory Acquisition and Read Segmented Reconstruction

摘要

A method for quantifying T1, T2 and resonance frequency simultaneously using magnetic resonance fingerprinting (MRF) includes accessing an MRF dictionary using a magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) system. The MRF dictionary is generated by simulating signal evolutions that include associated off-resonance effects for each signal evolution. The method further includes acquiring MRF data from a region of interest in a subject using the MRI system and a MRF pulse sequence having a plurality of radio frequency (RF) excitations and a readout associated with each RF excitation. Each readout includes a plurality of segments and each segment is used to generate a time frame. The method also include comparing the MRF data to the MRF dictionary to identify a plurality of parameters including T1, T2 and resonance frequency for the MRF data and generating a report indicating the at least one of the plurality of parameters of the MRF data.
