Abstract: The disclosure provides a modified EPI sequence for acquiring multi-shot and multi-echo images with interleaved blip-up and blip-down phase encoding; the blip-up and blip-down images are processed by topup in FSL to estimate the inhomogeneous main magnetic field B0 map that causes image distortions; the B0 map is then incorporated into the encoding matrix with a low rank constraint to form a joint reconstruction model; the joint reconstruction model is solved to obtain multiple distortion-free images; and the multiple distortion-free images are matched to dictionary to simultaneous acquire the quantitative T2(=1/R2) and T2*(=1/R2*) maps. In the phantom and in-vivo measurements, the disclosed method rapidly acquires the comparable quantitative images within one hold-breath (for 20 s) to the conventional mapping method, thus providing important practical application value for evaluation of liver damage, iron level and cancer lesion.

Abstract: Magnetic resonance imaging (“MRI”) using a spin- and gradient-echo (“SAGE”) pulse sequence with blip up-down acquisition (“BUDA”) encoding enables distortion-free, high-resolution diffusion-weighted imaging and/or quantitative parameter mapping. Phase-encoding polarities are alternated across shots during a multi-shot acquisition. In each shot, multi-contrast data are acquired at echo times associated with a gradient echo, a mixed gradient-and-spin echo, and a spin echo. High in-plane resolution and distortion-free quantitative parameter maps can be generated, such as T2 maps. T2* maps, paramagnetic susceptibility maps, and diamagnetic susceptibility maps. Diffusion-weighted data can be acquired using diffusion encoding gradients and BUDA encoding, where multi-contrast data are acquired in the b=0 acquisition. Diffusion parameter maps can be generated from the b=0 and diffusion-weighted data.
