To perform parameter mapping, Magnetic Resonance
Fingerprinting (MRF) relies on highly efficient, highly
undersampled trajectories to acquire the image series,
yielding images contaminated by high aliasing noise. We
propose an iterative multiscale method to denoise these
images so as to reduce the length of image series
required for accurate parameter mapping. The proposed
method is shown to allow the simultaneous T1, T2, field
inhomogeneity and proton density estimation at 1.17 mm

resolution
in vivo from a single 5.1s acquisition, representing a
potential 4-fold increase in acquisition speed for MRF
methods.
