Simultaneuous B0 and High Dynamic Range B1 Mapping Using an Adiabatic Partial Passage Pulse

Kim Shultz¹, Greig Scott¹, Joelle Barral¹, John Pauly¹

We present a simultaneous δ B₀ and high-dynamic range B₁ mapping technique using an adiabatic partial passage pulse. The double angle method, the gold standard for B₁ mapping, requires 66% longer to acquire the same B₁ range. The high dynamic range is useful for mapping the fields from ablation wires or surface coils, where significant B₀ variation will also be present.
