Assessment of MRF for simultaneous T1 and T2 quantification and water –fat separation in the liver at 0.55 T

ConclusionIt is feasible to measureT1 andT2 simultaneously in the liver using MRF on a 0.55  T system with lower performance gradients compared to state-of-the-art 1.5 T and 3 T systems within an acquisition time of 15 s. In addition, rosette MRF enables water–fat separation along withT1 andT2 quantification with no time penalty.
