In conventional MRI, metallic implants generate severe
geometric artifacts so that images cannot be used in
diagnosis. In recent years, 3D-MSI methods such as SEMAC
and MAVRIC have significantly improved image quality
near metallic implants. However, 3D-MSI needs very long
imaging time to acquire several spectral bins for
covering whole distorted magnetic field. Multiband
imaging technique could be one of the solutions for
shortening the imaging time of 3D-MSI. Multiband imaging
acquires the signal of multiple spectral bins
simultaneously so that the number of excitations
decreases. In this paper, multiband 3D-MSI method will
be proposed for accelerating the imaging speed.
