The effect of any pulse sequence on the magnetization in an object can be predicted very accurately using the Bloch equation. A general algebraic inversion of the Bloch equation is not possible and thus, the full set of object and system properties and parameters cannot be derived from measurement data directly. Using a few assumptions and neglecting possible deviations, the results of a given pulse sequence can be calculated and the spatial encoding can be inverted to reconstruct an image. But what if these assumptions are wrong?
