A
rapid chemical shift imaging technique is presented that provides T2* values
and T1-W amplitudes of multiple chemical species in addition to accurate and
precise temperature estimates.
Temperature response of each parameter is correlated with Arrhenius
rate analysis to determine if measurements can aid in verifying treatment
goals.
