T2-weighted imaging and T2 mapping play an important
role in the diagnosis of pathologies and in the
quantitative characterization of tissue. 3D imaging and
3D T2 mapping are useful in applications where the
anatomical structure can be better viewed by
reformatting an isotropic voxel. In this work, we
present a technique for isotropic T2 mapping that uses
data collected using a radial 3D Fast Spin Echo pulse
sequence and a reconstruction technique that generates
T2 maps from highly undersampled data.
