Abstract

A new spiral imaging technique incorporates the acquisition of a field map into imaging interleaves. Variable density spiral trajectories are designed to oversample the central region of k-space, and interleaves are acquired at two different echo times. A field map is extracted from this data and multifrequency reconstruction is used to form an off-resonance corrected image using the entire dataset. Simulation, phantom, and in vivo results indicate that this technique can be used to achieve higher image and/or field map spatial resolution compared to conventional techniques.
