We propose a novel fast and accurate method for
calculating transverse relaxation times called Auto
Regression on Linear Operations (ARLO). T2
*
mapping
using simulated and in vivo data showed ARLO delivered
comparable accuracy compared to the non-linear least
squares based Levenberg-Marquardt (LM) algorithm and
better accuracy for lower SNR and shorter T2
*
compared
to the Log-Linear (LL) algorithm. ARLO is approximately
100 and 10 times faster than LM and LL, respectively,
enabling rapid whole-organ T2
*
mapping.
